Trailbraking works well, but I didn't feel like it really helps at autocross speeds. A quick jab of the brakes follow by left foot braking really did wonders in planting the front end and getting the rear end loose. (I also ran higher pressures in the rear tires btw)
On the track, I normally trailbrake. I do have an in car video of me hooking the outside rear tire of my Viggen completely off the track trailbraking while keeping the front drive wheels firmly planted on the asphalt.. It's only slightly nerve racking ;)
Should probably also mention that Saabs will lift the inside rear providing amusement for the corner workers.
