Re: Radar Detection (left foot braking)

[Russ Burns <burns@ismi.net>]

It does work. I was racing in some 150cc go-cart at a amusement park a few
years ago. My feet were a little too big to untangle from the pedals, so I
just floored the cart, and operated the brake.  I had great runs, but I am
sure it was hard on the brakes. If you caught up to the person in front of
you, you got a free lap. I got about 15 free laps before the folks running
the track got wise.
