Full on drift cars run a separate caliper with a hydraulic system attached to what looks to be just an extended e-brake handle. The only thing in common it has with a real e-brake is that it's attached to the rear wheels and it's actuated with your hand.

Pedal dance turns off all the driver's aids, so if you're new to driving, DON'T DO IT. If you're on a controlled course and have some instruction it's great, but I'd rather not hear about someone wrecking their car on the street

Beware of the Youtube stuff though as a LOT of those guys don't have a clue what they are really doing and their only instruction was from Fast N' Furious which should be held up as what NOT too do in real life.
There may be some stuff done by real pro drivers but no idea what to refer you to.

This is why drifters use POS beaters to drift and not nice shiny new cars. Even the best hit stuff.

Drums?

Yep, drums. The reason that your rear rotors are extend out in the center is because your parking brake shoes and mechanism are inside there. The flat outer part is for the regular pads. Conversely that is why the front rotors are not as deep on the hub mount face as they don't have all the extra parts inside.

Asshat how? He was at a track, pretty much where he should be doing this.

Thanks I think I've had a different understanding

Thinking whole brake drums I bet. As can be seen in the picture the e brak pads are very thin and not really meant to be used when the vehicle is moving (unless an emergency of course). They will wear very quickly if used for actual braking or when drifting. Not saying they can't be used just need to be aware that you are using them up fast and they ain't cheap!

Exactly, I was thinking rear drums, but it makes a lot more sense now, not using vacuum pressure to hold the car on a hill when the engine is off is much safer lol. I had always thought the pads on the discs were actuated when the ebrake was on. Thanks for clearing that up.
