Left foot braking vs Corner Brake Control

Do you find left foot braking effective in autocross
(or other driving environment) in your MINI ?

How does the Corner Brake Control affect how
the car reacts to left foot braking ?

I use my left foot to brace myself, and so I can feel
how my car is rotating. But someday I will have a
restraint harness and will be better able to
experiment with this technique.

Once upon a time I used left foot braking routinely,
but that was in a turbo-lagged 65 hp VW diesel.

So far, I am coming to terms with judging braking
points as my tires warm up during the run, and as
some parts of the course are dry and others wet.
