But, left foot braking, after seeing my brother use it and trying it myself, scares the living crapola (that's fancy Spanish) outta me.

If you're going to cite SCCA experience, left foot braking is totally an autocrosser technique, especially in a FWD car.
I have ProSolo medals to prove that it works.

I've won events in both a GS ITR and and a CP Miata braking with my left foot.
