1st time poster, long time drifter here. My concern with this chassis comes down to two things.
1) Electric Ebrake
2) No manual trans
I'll focus on my first concern, the Ebrake.
All newer cars seem to be switching to this style system, where a button, or a lever, sends an electronic signal to the rear brakes to engage the parking brake mechanism. This is great for normal people, not so much for me. However, I think it could be modified to suit my needs.
Would it be possible to mount a handbrake, like a hydro style, and put a button that has a potentiometer built in to where when the handbrake is yanked, it sends a progressive signal to the rear brakes for lock up? And, at the same time, as soon as the handbrake is initiated, it puts the DCT into neutral as to not tear up the transmission or cause a bogging issue?
I think that if this is possible, it would allow for the car to be much more fun for people like me. What do you guys think?
