what happens to an auto tranny when you launch from N to D?

[J Sizzle]

My cousin use to do it in his 91 CB7. The last time he did it was at a red light and when he stopped at the next one. It didnt take off so do what everyone else said just get a 5 speed

axles brake apart, torque heats up so much it cracks it and breaks it. eventually somewhere down the line the crank will break. because you apply pressure in the engine and when you drop it you let all the high pressure hit the tranny is one second it could also break engine parts. keep on doing it if you have money or do it my way. when your at a light drop it into 1st, hold the brake with left foot, and right foot a little on the gas till 2500 rpm. when light turns green, let go of brake it will take off like a rocket. and just manual switch every gear. but eventually the engine and tranny mounts will go, because of the engines hard movement. so go with typegs advice or dont do it at all.

This kid I went to high school with used to do it all the time in his moms 98 stratus. One day he blew the tranny. You'd think he learned his lesson, no he didnt, he kept on doing it and went through 3 trannies and then finally stopped.

you are exactly correct your car will go boom and it would be funny as hell to see lol. Neutral dropping is the stupidest thing you could EVER do to your cars transmission.

Well whatever floats your boat the way i see it is if its not yours then go right ahead lol.
but beware when you do break it be ready for your dad to flip shit on you and have a tow truck ready.

our youth minister in highschool let one of the senior girls drive his 2000 suburban, my friend nick thought it would be a cool idea while she was inside the 7-11 to do a huge burnout in it. so he revved it up to 5k and put it in neutral and it made the worst noise ive ever heard. then didnt move at all... she thought it just broke, and we didnt say anything, so all was good.

I've neutral dropped my car apx. 60-80 times over the last 3.5 years and tranny was fine until I cracked my tranny case 2 years ago (pot-hole). But eventually neutral dropping will definately hurt in the long run.
