Re: sick of handbrakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ive only had my handbrake for about a month.... i learned all the other stunts first... then slapped on the HB.... its opened up my game that much more but i noticed that since i learned throttle control first, i dont use the HB as much as i thought i would.... its there "just in case".... i mean damn, with 16 up in the back, i got plenty of engine brake.... but as im startin to try to bust more and more combos, i tend to use it more also.... i love the handbrake....
and at the same note, some people dont need them... look at darius in his old school days...he busted MAAAAD combos before anyone knew what a HB was.... but i see what people mean when they come too dependent on them.... im probably gonna become one of those people...hahaha

This argument is just like the circles are boring argument......for the most part, the only people that hate on them, are the people that cannot rock them
