Dan,
 
I am aware of the IPSCO solution, which is a step above the 'silly kart things' as I was thinking more of the cheaper variant Wilwood spot calipers;

There is a requirement in the UK MOT test for the handbrake to bring the rear wheels to a stop against the force of a rolling road and without a certain level of  imbalance between sides. I wsa trying to convey (poorly) that I don't think many of the options owners revert to in the US would meet the demands of the test, and I think that might include the OEM setups in many US based Pantera's.

That looks like it would work as well as many OEM set ups I've seen.  Some
of those are simply tiny mechanically actuated drum brakes that use the
inside of the hub as the braking surface.

   Dan,
