I have not tried to do an actiual handbrake turn yet, just tested it a couple of goes in a straight line on the road.
Good question mate...like Dougie, I tend to use it as the car is turning in. I never actually used the one on Graham's car (my new car) so my only experience is from the long handle one from my old car (now in the new car).....which is set up on AP brakes...though the one you bought from me was set up on Brembos and according to Graham, worked fine. I can't really remember trying mine in a straight line....so yours may in fact be OK like you say...maybe try it when turning in. Do you have a brake bias adjuster in line?
