Racing tricks

Nope. It is ok to drive like that but putting in neutral and then bring the RPMs up and dropping in drive will.

Here's a tip that I heard from this one dude

--------------
You can show them what you have under the hood but never tell them. As soon as you tell them, you're done.

That's some damn good advice I think. Don't tell them what the hell you have ported, what turbo you got, what injectors, what boost you're running, etc. Odds are they won't know all that just by looking at your setup. I think you should actually mislead them and tell them you've been having problems!

no, automatics dont use belts, unless its a CV tranny. They use what's called a Planety gearing system. Sorta weird, but different gear ratios' different gears in teh tranny lock up while others start turning. To find out more go here

so is it still harmful to drive like I described earlier?

Whoops, I meant to say BANDS!!

[Steel]

Yeah, they use a couple of bands, but i would be much more worried aobut killing the clutch plantes, and deforming the gears inside there.

Well the main reason I would worry about the bands is because I have had it happen to me before.
