The only time I've ever needed to use the ebrake on a hill start is in vehicles with engine problems and they were having trouble staying running on a flat surface, let alone the crisp response needed for a clean hill start. But again - those were extenuating circumstances warranting the use. The 86 has a ridiculously short first gear and is light enough and has (more than) enough torque off idle to not ever need help on a hill.
