One move will be fine, but if they have to make several, high throttle maneuvers...sawing back and forth...they risk burning up the clutches inside the automatic tranny....some spot on...most will then have burnt ATF ash in there.

Once anyone of those clutches slip...in what seemingly is an instant...that gear's clutches are toast. Usually reverse and/or 1stScottG wrote:
