Scandinavian flicks aren't so bad, on dirt they are dead easy, on tarmac they aren't such a good idea - I would say they are very insane especially at high speed. Tyres perform very differently when sliding on tarmac compared to how they slide on dirt.

Left foot braking doesn't bog the engine down, ideally you should corner at a speed that has a fairly high slip angle, then it's just a matter of using the left foot (gently) to brake the rears - whilst the front still go because you are mashing the throttle - and cause the rears to gain a greater slip angle than the fronts (ie go sideways).

Left foot braking is most beneficial on turbo cars because it allows the engine to stay on high boost. It can be of benefit to NA cars as well moreso in some situations than others.
