Left side of shoe on brake, angle foot so you can blip the throttle with right side of shoe. That's what I do..

That's the way I do it, too. But it takes a lot of practice if you have a smaller foot. On the track, I also set my idle up around 1,500 or so. That way the rpm's don't drop all the way to idle while I'm braking.

Really? 1g? That's impressive. How did you find that out? Because I wonder what mine can do, for a comparison.

That's the only way I could learn it for the track. I also practice trail braking on some corners around town.

That might come in handy. I also practice writing with my left hand. In case I have a stroke. Doesn't matter how much money you have if you can't write the check.
