Luxury cars with discs all round often have small drums built into the
disc on the rear wheels, which is used for the parking brake. The
reason being that if you park a disc braked car on an incline, with
very hot discs when the discs cool the car can start to slide down the
incline.
Handbrake is actually much better -

No you are correct - Absolute waste of time/effort/money, and will
probably end up with an inferior braking system (certainly on the
handbrake).
If you have a rear engined car, and are using it on the track, then
maybe????
Kish - It will probably affect (adversely) that new insurance you have
as well.

I am sure I have heard people who have done this say it is not worth
the effort as there is not a lot of weight at the back end, unless it
is purely an aesthetic requirement. Come on somebody back me up or am
I losing my mind?
