Pretty much various degrees of both. Most guys are "swapping feet", ie, holding the RPM at around 1/2 of the flash RPM (as low as 2000 or so, as high as 4000 or so) while holding the brake down hard, then matting the accelerator pedal while dumping the brakes.
It is extremely important to note that I'm talking about a very well tuned car, if you have a car you just can't get to rev up or flash quick and clean, it's not going to run well foot braking.
