i dont use the handbrake, just like i dont use it when i park my car. the only use of the handbrake for me is to make really fast, tight u-turns.
if i have to stop halfway up a hill for a while, i put car in neutral and keep a foot on the brake. when its time to move put car in 1st gear, heel and toe with right leg that way when i ease off the brake im already pressing the accelerator.
