it is horrible, if you must launch an autotragic transmission foot brake it so you can reach the stall speed of the converter then sidestep the brake pedal...never neutral drop anything you aren't trying to break...EVER

Uhhhh.....
Never. Ever. Never. Never. Never. Ever. Neutral drop an Automatic. NEVER You will break the ever loving shit out of your clutch packs, screw your 1st-gear up, and have fairly significant odds of blowing it all the fuck up in a glorious KABOOM. |

If it's at certain number of RPM's, it'll do significant damage. Sure, you could of done it and got away with it. I mean i could screw a girl without a condom and not get her pregnant.
Honestly though, put it in R for Racing.
