It is far more relevant than say science, history, and your typical worthless liberal arts classes today imo.

Economics class was mandatory to graduate high school in Georgia when I was in school. My econ teacher was a joke though...

I agree, but then you'd have people crying "discrimination!" We unfortunately have to cater to the stupid due to "freedom and equality for all."

question: how tight should your ebrake be TO lock up the rears? i HAVE tried ebrake pulls 2 times, nothing happened. the car just slowed down a little but it didnt slide out or skid, they just spun like if i was applying light brake pressure... so how tight should it be? |
Using the e-brake is not wrong or cheating. Even pros use their e-brake. Some use it to initiate, some use to maintain angle, scrub speed, etc.
And when you tried pulling your e-brake, you pushed the clutch in, right? You're not gonna lock up the rear wheels if you're still in gear..
