stepping on brake and accelerator pedal

rookies SG

what would happen if i step on the brake and accelerator pedal together on an auto car?

safetyleo SG

why don't you try it?
I couldn't rem, what was happened, I had tried before,

mystee SG

i tink will get squeeky sound.. is bad for the tyres..

eviljustice SG

hm. u will just wear out the brake pad. hmm. nth will happen. just some noise but car will still move

DriftingGuy SG

U can try, brake pads are quite cheap Laughing

WhamBamTyMam SG

i’ve tried it before but not to the extend of reving till 5rpm. Car wouldnt move but you would hear a slightly more grunted sound. doing it once in a blue moon should be fine

safetyleo SG

anyway, how many of you try ABS before, either have a near accident or just purposely test it whether it is functioning?

Elysium7 SG

Sometimes I will do it for a split second if I’m starting on a reasonable slope, eg in an underground carpark where you have to wait behind barrier for cashcard to check. Normally just leave my foot on brake the whole time, then when I want to move i hit accelarator then take foot off brake. Maybe not the best thing for the car though

apparently it wont spoil ur car... it just increases wear and tear rate..

and.. for fast launches for automatics.. they do that method.. seen and taught by drift king from best motoring japan..

the method from what i see was as follow..

1. depress brake pedal as much as possible
2. depress accelerator as much as possible.
3. shift to neutral and give it a hard rev.. the brake pedal will allow u to depress even more
4. repeat step 2 with brake pedals still depressed.. (rev will go up higher than step 2)
5. release the brake pedal and zoom u go..

this was done on the new VW Golf GTi... however, accelerator pedal must inch off from 100% throttle to about 70% to get maximum acceleration... as 100% would give too much wheelspin.. (yes... automatic doing wheelspin..)

if ur car not powerful enuf.. den don expect wheel spin hor..

EvilPorkChop SG

ur legs will become v tired as time goes by..

Surprised

tomsss SG

the car that you're driving will split into 2. will not happen to other ppl... only you special case will lidat Laughing

When you jam on your brakes, ABS helps you stop the car within the shortest possible distance without locking the wheels, so as to prevent the car from skidding.

Unless you have driven a car without ABS before, you most probably cant tell whether ABS has set in or not... For most new car owners, ABS has become "part of the car", so much so that they dunno what it does anymore...

note that vw transmission uses dual clutch pads instead of what the usual torque convertor...

u like that say later all the gina siao siao go and try on some sunny or altis or mz 3.... Laughing

zerocool85 SG

usual torque convertor also can do ma.. just don rev so high lor... Laughing

DSG also involve torque convertor ma..

but....

its a heavy duty and better one Evil or Very Mad

n0x SG

no golf GTI uses DCG... dual clutch plates.... go read it up...

and torque convertor has a lot of slip... so u cant really launch the car...

WhamBamTyMam SG

I also thought vw golf have DSG not DCG.

n0x SG

its the same thing... DSG is short for Direktschaltgetriebe... dcg is my own short form for Dual clutch gearbox.... but one thing is for sure... they do not use torque convertor... golf gti is famous for its transmisson..

zerocool85 SG

yup.. its so famous until car competitors now are pumping tons of money into their auto transmissions..

oh.. i got it wrong then.. tot they had dual clutch 'panels' unlike other auto car which has a single 'panel' fitted onto the torque convertor..

thanks for clairifying..

dsg.. its almost as fast as f1..

imagine the new exotics will be using similar tech to dsg.. woo.. fast.. unless they have better technology.. im not too sure of that..

i wld like to see M powered DSG.. Evil or Very Mad

if your brakes are in good condition your car will stop or not move if already stopped. braking forces will overcome throttle/accleration forces every time.
