<VV> Drag Race

GM did indeed throw the Powerglide transmission into drive at wide open 
throttle
100 times to test for durability .... but surely that 'merely' tested 
the
transmission's mechanical strength, whereas holding the car on the 
brakes, in
drive, at wide open throttle will cause a very rapid rise in 
temperature in the
torque converter. That, presumably, is going to do little for 
durability.

===============================================

That may be.. but these PG's push Ultravans...I'd take the chance on 
that alone!
