Does putting on the brake and the gas at the same time and then letting off the brake hurt the transmission?

it'll burn up your brakes and heat up your torque converter -
If you have an automatic you really have to do this to get good times. If you just do it after you are staged the amount of time you are doing it is really going to be a short amount of time.
Probably isn't any harder on the transmission than doing repeated runs all night and just mashing down the gas.
If you do it for an extended amount of time as mentioned above it can probably be hard on your torque converter.SLP CAI, K&N, Whisper Lid, 180* thermo, manual fan switch, 3.42 gears, Auburn Pro LSD, Wester\'s PCM Tuning, TSP Rumbler, High Flow Cat. Best Time: 9.909@71.58 (1/8 mile)Comment

But then it would be the perfect excuse for a new one.

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
Not much going on, replaced my Kenwood double din stereo with a Pioneer double din, the Kenwood had problems. Then replaced my power inverter for my reverse...2 weeks ago
