Matt, Look under the car to see if the ebrake cable has tension on it.If you didnt pull it it shouldnt but thats the best way to make a quick check.Or you could jack up the rear and see if the rear wheels are locked. Tim

the cable was rusted and i didnt want to use it again so i just cut the damn thing and took the breaks off. not using them anyways. frame was stripped and powder coated.
