We got about an inch of snow here in Columbus tonight. I went to a church with a couple of nice sized parking lots and put the e-brake to work. So much fun, nice fresh snow powder is so perfect, get the car going a little, left, right, offset the weight, pull the e-brake, start going sideways turn the wheel the other way and try to keep it sideways with the throttle for maybe 10 seconds or so, or untill run out of space. OMG so much fun. Definitely keep your windows closed at all times though. Just a little tip. Fun stuff just wanted to share the excitement.

I never really noticed if the light came on or not.

I'd say it was drifting to some extent. I wasn't just pulling the e-brake and whipping the tail around 180 degrees and stalling my car. It was more of a throttle controlled directional change with the aid of the emergency brake at different intervals. omg lol, or something like that. But yeah it is just playing around.

You drive your rear wheels onto trays (like the ones at McDonalds) and pull your e-brake. This will allow you to slide your back end around. A video was posted a long time ago. Never tried it myself, but definetly on a list of "To Do's" this year.
