it will definitely fry your clutch and tranny. For pete's sake....and folks complain that maintaining their Audi costs too much $$$. You arent being sponsored by some performance racing team. If you dont have the resources (aka cash) for a new clutch (and its peripheries) and transmission, then dont follow that advice.
