:lol:
if your car has enough power it will just drag the back tires and you will get flat spots if its FWD, if its RWD its extra strain on the drivetrain. not sure if you could mess up anything up though. i guess it depends on how long it was on for.

it was on for like 20 mins from like west mount to northside...and we started smelling burnt smoke, and yes its a all wheel drive SUV (honda)

rofl, as ashamed as I am to admit this I did the exact same thing in our explorer. It's completely ball less and I just assumed it was it being it's normal sucky self. Drove for about 5 minutes with it on, and the brakes started to smell like burning urine :p Ate up the rear drums, no major damage though. The brakes needed doing anyways.
