i realised that i wanted a really long and progresive handbrake but but the possition of the seat and the shifter , i was very llimited too the lenght ,
so i decided too reinvent how the handbrake works,
ive made this multiple pivot design that swings the handbrake forward progressively while you pull on it , letting you have a long handbrake ,but not have it come up really far back

and then ive just mounted a switch from a refrigirator (the one that opens/closes the lights lol)

**sorry for not having it so clean yet , ill clean all the welds and gona paint it when i find some spare time

Now that mine broke cause my friend thought it was a good switch I most likely will redo my mod with a real handbrake from a junkyard. Or another switch.
 
I would like to know where the progressive part fits in? Until the game allows progressive handbrakes all you can have is handbrake on/off you can't use the handbrake like your foot brake or gas pedal.You would be better off just adjusting your brake bias all the way to the rear.This is the only way I can see having a "progressive hand brake"
 
its not progresive in the way that is has a potentiometer , but with the way it unfolds it gets a bit stiffer the further you go
