Generally speaking, being good at one ambidextrous thing does not make one good at multiple ambidextrous things.

I am in complete agreement with LunaZ. All I was saying is that if you have the gift of dexterity, your learning curve maybe less. That said I didn't learn to dribble a basketball or hit left handed over night. I practices my a$$ off and I hit over .300 while I was at Cal Poly Pomona. This is no different than what the auto cross driver posted earlier. He became proficient and the result are he wins events.
I'm not arguing for or against left foot braking. I'm just saying it can be done proficiently by some and for most everyone else, heed the warning statement on commercials "do not try this at home...professional driver on board."
