That really isn't the fastest way around a turn... -J

If it doesn't lock up the tires then it needs to be re-adjusted. Use the cars power to slide around a corner, not the e-brake.

if its wet, try a clutch kick.... but dont do it on dry roads, bad for your drivetrain.. i used to have a 350hp 240sx, drifting is SOOO much fun in that thing

I'm thinkin you have been driving a lot of front wheel drive cars. I'm not thinkin your gonna get the effect your looking for with the ebrake because of the mass in the drivetrain.Drop it down a gear coming in and hop on it going out you'll have it sliding
