torque brake = boost

Re:torque brake = boost
I just had to add something in case someone else looks up this thread.
Accelerating while the car is lifted in the area, and causing the wheels to turn is extremely harsh on the Constant Velocity (CV) joints as well as other suspension parts.
I can't explain why, my suspension book really doesn't dig much further into it.
They suggest doing this to test out wheel bearings, but to do it extremely slowly because of how devestating it can be on the suspension.
So for future reference, don't do this

Re:torque brake = boost
I figured it had something to do with the fact that there was no weight on the suspension, and the car is designed to run with weight on it. But I wasn't sure "exactly" because frankly, my teacher did a ------- terrible job explaining the CV joints to us
