On a front wheel drive model, in order to power brake(brake start), I would think you would hold on to the handbrake (holds the rear wheels) with button in while pushing the accelerator. This way full power is at the front wheels. In rear drive, you would want to hold the foot brake(holds the front wheels) down since the power is to the rear wheels.

I have done the power brake on front drive with the brake pedal vs the handbrake and the handbrake gets better results.

Just a thought.:)
