Not too good. I kind of made a bone-head move and drove a little "spirited" with another guy. My car hadn't warmed up much yet. Still below the C. RPM's were around 5-6k. Not too good since I know this is bad for the engine. Do you think just that once would do much damage. Bah, I don't think so, but I feel kind of stupid for doing it. :stupid:

 

you had oil pressure and if you have a cold weather oil u are fine. Doubt it would harm anything.

 

I wouldn't make a habit out of it, but the rare occurance won't hurt anything. It's mostly just a matter slightly increased wear. this isn't a true high performance motor, so you're not going to permenant damage like warping the heads or cracking the block... as could happen in something like a 1000HP Formula 1 engine.

Sorry but you motor will only last 398,000 miles now instead of 400,000 miles.

 

i did that the other day, felt really bad for my car, luckily i let the car idle when i reched my destination.

 

I love your statement above
