This will do wonders for your transmission . I really don't think the reverse gear is designed to spin that fast. I wouldn't risk blowing my tranny for curiousity.

Hmm.....I've never tried it, but logically speaking, I wouldn't have thought any different.
Is it any wonder that you hear complaint after complaint about our "weak" transmissions?

I wouldn't like to try this, but I'm sure it CAN be done. Should we? No.

Do enough searching and you might find some discussion about a certain Houston owner who actually achieved this. I don't remember if there was video or not, though.
