Shift into neutral and left foot brake on the street when coming to a stop, that's how I made it at least somewhat competent for autox. If you're aware of your surroundings there shouldn't be any risk to it. But now I'm going back to trying to right foot brake more often, left foot only for special scenarios where it pays off.
Brake release is important too, I get a bit of a clunk if I lift off the brake quickly, so now I'm consciously attempting to be smooth on coming off the brakes such that the pedal is silent. Cars that do nothing wrong teach you nothing right.
