  • Rally Champion Tim O'Neil explains the basics of left foot braking and rally driving techniques, all of which are taught at the Team O'Neil Rally School. Rally driving requires extensive car control skills and training compared to other performance driving such as road courses and track days. Left foot braking is typically used to control understeer and oversteer on a rally stage.

      Hi, I just want to see if I understand this correctly.
      You use the left foot to brake on this car to shift more weight to the front tires to prevent any understeering right? And in addition, are there any braking techniques to know on a RWD? I'd think using this technique on a RWD would actually make matters worse, but I've noticed it helps a tad if I lightly apply a bit of pressure during the turn (assuming the turn is pretty wide)

      It's pretty incredible the difference in fine motor control between you left and right leg after years of driving "normally".
      Though it does explain the rough start one had when learning to drive I guess.. two left legs so to speak.

      +jfv65 Hot, but I'd expect not super-on-fire hot. The brakes aren't doing as much work as you might think on dirt (vs. pavement), and a lot of his braking is just to control tire slip -- it takes very little to slow just the tire. (wheel: 20lbs, car: 2000+) I'll have to try using my left foot a lot more at the next rallyx (which normally is too short to get any speed, but first event is at VIR this year -- end of Feb.)

    Don't get me wrong, but I would expect someone from anywhere else in the world explain and show a very detailed rally driving technic, but not from USA. In Europe carguys thinks over there everyone only can do dragrace or oval. And no one knows anything about cars. I was the same some time ago, really sceptical and I had bad preconception too. But I have to admit I was so wrong. I think, somebody who have a chance to take lessons in this RallySchool, he/she will be a great driver. I really enjoyed and I found this video very helpful.

      @iamyourgreatgreatgreatgrea6291 7 лет назад +28

      Honestly, learning how to control a car in racing is a bit like learning how to play a music instrument and become a wider and greater musician. Regardless of what kind of racing driver you are, you most likely have some use for advises from any other racing driver, including nascar or drag race drivers really.
      Everyone has something to share and it might really end up being what helps you to improve as a driver overall.
      Also, I think it's really stupid when people talk crap about Nascar or Drag Racing, I mean sure, I do also not find it that fun to watch, but as a fellow motorsports lover, it is just unlogical and immature to hate on any motorsport aside from that/those you like.
      If you like motorsports, you're not supposed to hate on any other motorsport that isn't one of those you watch or enjoy, because that's really the same as sinking the boat you're in with a bunch of other people, or attack your teammates in a war because they don't use the weapons you love.

      @Sokeresa 5 лет назад +3

      That depends on whether you know how to drive manual or not, that will take some time. One way or the other it's pretty easy to learn left foot breaking on an everyday car - especially if it's automatic, you start using your left foot to brake all the time you drive, you start slowly in an empty parking lot (school, back off the mall....) to get a feel on how much pressure you need to apply. If you know how to drive manual things might be just a tad harder since your left foot is already used to stomping the clutch, but if you automatic box driver should be a tad easier. Slowly but surely over time you will have more and more control over your left foot breaking, just remember on an everyday car and on tarmac don't brake and accelerate at the same time, just work on braking withthe left foot instead of your right foot and voila, when you get in a rally car you can put them together.

    @evanhorner7209 8 лет назад +8

    Your "Not your day, out of practice" is still really impressive!
    I have an idea for future videos like this: it would be really cool for you to have an AiM or even like Harry's LapTimer set up in the car to overlay throttle, brake, and steering. Maybe also gear, rpm, and speed.
    I suggest this because with braking, throttle and steering especially, it was easy to see when you were applying them, but harder to see by how much.
    Otherwise, fantastic video and I really enjoyed watching it. I was unaware of how much you ride the brakes to settle the car and control wheelspin (my racing experience is all on pavement).

    You're using the brakes all the time. Sometimes right foot braking can be useful too. There's also the toe heel, the right foot braking while pushing down the clutch without using the gaz pedal when preparing the Scandinavian Flick which is in my opinion the most skilled and the most used in Rally.

    Is there a difference in braking and throttle control with all wheel drive cars?

    • @SideWays8Productions
      @SideWays8Productions 8 лет назад +1

      +Ivanrico238 Assuming the car has ABS disabled, it'll be harder to lock up the rear wheels on AWD cars, since they're being powered. It'll take a little more brake input to lock them up compared to a FWD car, and unlike FWD cars, all 4 wheels spin at (roughly) the same rate, which will affect brake lock, powering out of corners, etc. It might be harder to kick the back end out, but at the same time it might be a more consistent flow.

    • @jfbeam
      @jfbeam 8 лет назад +15

      +Ivanrico238 FWD, vs. RWD, vs. AWD there are differences, but I wouldn't call them extreme. For example, with FWD, the gas can pull you out of trouble, where as RWD the same thing can make things worse. It's all about managing weight transfer, and thus traction, to get the desired result.

    • @Nik.Coffman
      @Nik.Coffman 7 лет назад +8

      SideWays8Productions FWD pulls, RWD pushes, AWD does both. Everything changes, you don't drive any one like the other. AWD is better in every other way besides top end speed. It's best to have a secondary (independent) braking unit for the rear wheels on AWD rigs. You'll have more consistent feel of what the rear end is doing.

    • @SideWays8Productions
      @SideWays8Productions 7 лет назад +2

      AWD has nothing to do with top end speed. Hell, the fastest production car in the world is AWD.
      And my comment was referring to cars without independent rear braking systems (hydraulic handbrakes, etc). Some rally classes forbid it's use, and in that case, it'll be hard to lock up those rear brakes on an AWD or RWD car under power than it would on a FWD car.
      Besides, left foot braking is rarely used to fully lock up the wheels. It's more commonly and easily used to transfer the weight forward to bring the back end around. In order to prevent damaging the center diff, you'll have to clutch in when using a hydraulic handbrake. With left foot braking, you can kick the back end around without locking up the brakes and binding the center diff. Tho it is harder to do when those back wheels are powered.

    • @ivancuesta98v12
      @ivancuesta98v12 7 лет назад +10

      SideWays8Productions awd actually affects top speed but in rallying its not important. awd cars lose more power throughout the transmission so thats why.

    At the 2minute marker my breaks would cook already! ^^
    But I have to say, that I, since I saw this video, I got better at Dirt Rally etc and even use it in everyday situations where I just want to avoid sliding over my front wheels. And it works perfectly. The only downside that is, that in normal modern street cars the throttle cuts out if you stay to long on the break while staying on the throttle at the same time. :-/

    • @Cynsham
      @Cynsham 2 года назад +1

      You're not continuously pressing the brake pedal, you're just constantly hovering over the pedal with your left foot so you can tap it at a moments notice to keep wheelspin down and make sure weight transfers to the front so you don't understeer through a corner off the track.

    I saw a video of Collin Mcrae footwork and he didn't keep the gas pressed the whole time like you do. His braking was much more brief and when he had gas and brakes on at the same time he kept pumping the gas, never kept it pushed all the way.
    Does it matter if the car is FWD, RWD or AWD?

    • @fohdeesha
      @fohdeesha 7 лет назад +8

      MLCAgaming of course drivetrain matters! most of the throttle and brake inputs in this video are suited to lower power fwd cars, higher power awd like you would most likely see Colin in will require slightly different inputs, certainly more throttle modulation
