They also sell a seatbelt locking clip in device for like 20 bucks that does this by just pulling tight. It never allows the belt to go longer after its clicked in. It's also marketed as a way to get car seats locked in for babies but they side market a different colored model for racing. I forget the name though. |

Like more angled out than: \o/ where the o is my head and the slashes are my feet and you are looking down at my head from above. This is with knees straight. |

The problem with Left Foot Brake is that while you are using your left foot, you can't step hard against the rest pedal to push your body against the seat to prevent your body from sliding laterally during a corner.
This often results in a harder grip on the steering wheel during cornering to prevent your body from sliding too much but also numbs your sense for traction due to a firmer grip on the steering wheel. This is easily solved with a full bucket/custom seat with pads that suits your body contours and a 6 point harness to hold you in place. For high speed corners that require a slight tap of brakes to stablise, LHB can be particularly helpful even in factory seats. |
