Yes. And a watch the rpm go to a certain level, release the brake but continue to pedal to the metal. This is only for Steptronic (auto tranny).

It seems like brake torquing would wear out your brakes, no?

I was wondering what is the max rpm you guys are able to achieved using brake torquing before you release the brake pedal. My max is 2700 rpm due to my relatively weak engine (170 bhp),
