Richard,
I agree that left foot clutching and left foot braking can be extremely
confusing.
For me in my Corvette I find myself shifting to 2nd and leaving it there on most
courses. That means I have one shift and can then move my left foot over
the brake for the rest of the course. If I'm on a course where I do have to
downshift back to first, I might not try LFB.

For what it's worth, I avoid left foot braking on a stick because my humble
grey matter can't consistently differentiate between telling the left foot
"time to declutch, all the way to the floor this time" and "time to brake,
expect to stop half way before you hit the floor".
