On our tractors, we put our brake pedals on the same side as the gas, just further back... it seems like it would be awkward, but it's pretty easy to get used to.

Makes sense, really. Assuming you have a left-foot clutch and a right foot throttle- it stands to reason you'd put the brake with the throttle. It's pretty common to need to operate the clutch and brake at the same time, less common to have to work the throttle and brake without the clutch...
