Hold the E-brake release lever with one hand and tap the ebrake with your left foot. You need paddle shifters on the wheel to shift though.

Im surprised noone has actually given him some pointers?:dunno:

He is obviously not stupid, and even when he half expects you mouthbreathers to make fun of him, you of course dont let him down and prove to be a bunch of useless members. Cant anyone help this guy enjoy his car a bit more?

i did give him a tip, tape the handbrake so he can pull it without worrying about it locking. other then that its all feel. you have to feel where your cars going, how much grip you have. make sure you have enough throttle, and countersteer. its almost basics really. but the taping of the handbrake does work really well cuz then you don't accidentally lock it up for too long, it also depends what car your driving. etc. etc.

Trial and error do what feels best for you. Just keep in mind weight transfer and utilise your RPM's
