Removing parking brake street/strip car

It became a " PARK" brake when they couldn't fit the word " EMERGENCY" on that little tiny pedal on the left.
A true "park" brake has a brake drum on the back of the trans to secure the driveshaft from turning either way .
Most Motor Vehicle Acts require a "secondary mechanical brake" for emergencies to qualify for plates/insurance .
Very few people know about " curbing" the wheels when parked on a hill .
