Default stupid question but how do you guys do a good burnout without moving when the e brake is all the way

I go to the track and like I try to do a burnout and I got the ebrake up but it just pulls the car with me. how do you guys make the car do a good burnout without the car moving when the e brake is up??? I know this is the dumbiest question I am new to all this. thanks, Mark

2nd gear here, 3rd next year with the gsr, my lil b16 dont like 3rd gear,

pull to the edge of the water, second gear, rip the ebrake, clutch in, hit the box, clutch out.

get the tires up on the rev limmiter quick. dont feather it and try to get em moving. you want to get them moving as fast as they can as fast as you can get them there. if that makes sense.

Get the tires moving as fast as possible!

6-puck unsprung clutch with a "heavy duty" pressure plate doesn't like 3rd gear burnouts I just try to sit at 8k or so in 2nd. If you feather the pedal (let off and on again) it will grip and pull you out. You have to hold it steady.
