Default can't get a good burnout, way to strengthen e-brake?

I am not sure whats going on exactly but my e-brake does not seem capable of holding the car long enough for me to get a decent burnout going. Is there a way to adjust it to get a bit more grab? Using MH slicks btw.

Ok do you know if your back tires are sliding or turning? If they're sliding then tightening your ebrake won't help. What gear are you doing your burn out in and does your track have a decent water box? You could try doing your burn out in second if there is a good water box(not just damp concrete). And try to make sure your back tires stay out of the water at the start of your burnout so you don't just drag them along.

I am not sure if they are sliding or turning, I believe it to be the latter however. The e-brake in general feels really weak when I pull up on it. I tried doing 1st and 2nd gear burnouts with no success.
