done this today in my 92gt. drove a few miles and realized my car was overheating real bad, but wasnt smoking or any warning lights didnt come on. think i damaged my engine by drivin with the emergency brake up?
^^actually i've done it before too. you can't really feel much difference, i noticed mine when it start making sqeeking noise. Its porbably your brakes getting burnt. you might need to get new brakes
I've done it for maybe a half block, but you can REALLY tell when you take your foot off the gas. The car slows down in 4th gear like it's in 2nd or something.
I'm just a crosshair I'm just a shot away from you
I doubt you hurt you engine by doing this. It would just be added resistance like if you were towing a boat or something. Only your brakes would get messed up.
no i didnt notice it being sluggish at all. yea no smoke or warning lights. i jsut noticed my temp gauge. it was way above the h. i just hope i didtn hurt the engine. i lifted the hood and it didtn even smell hot. i dunno.

uh, maybe you need your e-brake readjusted or something? or maybe you don't pull up that hard on it? or maybe you modded your car so much, it is powerful enough to haul your rear end around without hardly noticing anything...
