The Ebrake locks the rear wheels. So that wouldnt be too great of an idea. Just floor it

You would use the e-brake on a FWD car.

Is it a manual? If so just dump the clutch at like 3000+ with the T/C off.

If an auto hold the brake and hit the gas and when it revs to like 2000+ let go of the brake.

Listen, if you WANT to peel out, chances are its to impress a friend or a girl. I suggest pissing your money away on a gym membership to get cut as opposed to 800 dollars for new tires every 6 months. The fact that you dont know how to peel out, means chances are you might lose control, so how about you play it safe and keep it under 2rpms at all times. ha

find a wall. park a foot away from it, facing the car towards the wall. now, inch your front bumper up to the wall, so that it juuuuust barely starts to touch the wall. now, start it up, put it in gear, and just floor it. viola! the car won't go anywhere, and your tires will be spinning!

What are you trying to do?? Lay some rubber? Or do a burnout?? If you have an automatic and you want to roast the tires without moving... aka, burnout, keep your foot on the brake and floor the gas... if you have a manual, rev the car, drop the clutch and immediatly hit the brake, while feathering the gas pedal, to avoid redlining for a long time.

If you want to do dougnuts, just floor the damn thing and start turning.
