I don't remember who it was who said their e-brake couldn't hold them in place doing that. For the E-brake to function like a line lock, you have to keep ot tight, once it starts getting lose and you have to pull up higher and higher to get it to get stiff, it won't function like a line-lock well. I am guessin that options, you keep your e-brake adjusted nice and tight, so it will hold as a line lock, correct? To who it was that said their e-brake couldn't hold, have it adjusted so it is tighter, that should help you so it will function as a line-lock for your rear wheels, like options does with his. Also, Options, you are right on, that is actually a VERY good way to launch. It is bad for your clutch and brakes, but then again, it's drag racing. I am suprised more people don't launch like that, thats how my cousin launched back in the muscle car ear when he dragged, except with a real line-lock for the front wheels. I know when speed and good times in concerned, thats the best way to launch, all the top dragsters have launched like that for years, with line-locks. The Proof of it is in your 1/4 mile and 60-ft times (and you most likely are very good at shifting at the optimum point too, cuz those are hella good times for your car. I bet you'd smoke with a heavily modded and boosted motor.)
