Basically rev the motor in neutral and drop it into gear- and yes its really tough on parts.
Ok try this- mix some soap/water and put a puddle under your tires and wet your tires good- then try the powerbrake again. If you have any wheel chocks you can try usin those too, that way you will have to use less brake. If that doesn't work I think you might SOL...

Maybe ill try the soap water thing tomorrow. I swear my car is just underpowered, kid on the other side of the subdivision has a green 97 v6 and he smoked me from a light the other day. And i really got beat by a completely stock 96 firebird and a 98 non supercharged buick reagal getting on the express way, a little 3 way race between friends, it was a really wide speed up ramp thinger.
