I use the foot brake on RWD cars because it isn't necessary to use the emergency brake IMO because the rear end can lose traction very easy.If I can't usually get the rear end out, I'll try feint drifting and then use the foot brake. The only time I ever use the ebrake is to hold the drift to drift two consecutive corners or on 4WD cars, like my Skyline. I rarely touch it though

I depend on the foot break coz the e-brake is just an alternative to get the car side wayz and i also use the e-brake for the 360 drift he he he

Easy road out? That would be putting softer tires on the front. E-brake requires plenty of skill to be used properly. People on this forum need to stop thinking about the e-brake as a "cheap trick." It is just as much a part of drifting as the foot brake, throttle, steering wheel, etc.
Personally, I use both e-brake and foot brake. Anyone who doesn't use the e-brake is like a pitcher who doesn't pitch curve balls. Sure, the other methods might work, and you might find them more comfortable or more natural, but that doesn't make the e-brake any less useful. You're only limiting yourself. Why limit yourself when you can better yourself instead?

This... is some good food for thought, come to think of it. I think I'll be seeing if I find myself using the e-brake in a few tricks anytime soon. I guess it's easy to think of it in a negative light like that, when all you hear about it is that it's a cheap trick in itself.
Cheers for not leaping on me and tearing me apart, especially while I'm resident forum idiot from planet newbie
