Drifters use it to lock up the rear brakes.

Do you lock rears to scuff speed? Or to cause the tail to slide or ??

Drifters use this rear brake handle to help innitiate the drift. The handles are set up as a push/pull. One way activates the right rear and the other the left rear brake.

Yes, pulling handbrake simply locks reartyres, just like normal e-brake but hydraulic and more effective.

It´s used in one technique when starting slide before entering the turn, or helping when changing direction.
