you get a very high rev and the car doesn't move. You need a thrid foot to release the clutch and actually get it to stall.

Its just like drivin up a steep hill. The harder you press the brake, the harder you will have to press the accelerator to keep moving.
You will use more fuel as the engine works harder.
The brake pads & discs will wear in no time and get very hot.
Its definately not recommended.
And you may get into trouble if you need to stop quickly or accelarate round something.
Although..... this technique called `Left Foot Braking` is very common in Rally Car racing and is used to overcome whats called `understeer` (when the car slides straight on when you turn the wheel) and power round corners, this takes some time to perfect so best left to the race track.
Hope this answers your question!!
Definately NOT stupid.... :-)

It depends - a car with a manual gearbox (where the driver changes gear) should stall if it's not in neutral: the brakes should lock the wheels.
If it's an automatic it's different. Moto Guzzi (an Italian motorcycle manufacturer) used to suggest the following brake test: brakes hard on, rev the engine in gear - it shouldn't move!!! But in the case of an automatic the engine is allowed to keep moving as they have a different form of clutch (the coupling between the engine and the gearbox) that permits slippage.

various the wear and tear would be executed to the brakes. The consistent friction from the brakes will lead them to overheat. this could burn and glaze the brake pads. The rotors or drums can warp and ought to strengthen cracks. The fluid interior the calipers ought to boil. you will placed one greater load at something of the force practice. If the motor vehicle replaced into pushed for an prolonged quantity of time like this it could have the same consequence as towing too large of load, with the exception of no suspension injury. an computerized transmission ought to overheat inflicting injury to the bands and clutches. On a instruction manual transmission it ought to injury the grab. If pushed too long with severe load on the engine it ought to overheat. all the matters that pass alongside with an overheated engine word.

You'll simply be testing the cars torque against the braking power. Not to be recommended I might say. And frankly a pointless exercise unless you are brain dead. As some people have said, the car would may stall. Not the best of questions ....

A short sudden jab on the brakes whilst having your foot on the accelerator, when travelling on the motorway at speed, is the best way I have found of getting a tailgator to drop back off your tail - the morons seem to realise that they are travelling too close for comfort - works even better than spraying them with water from the windscreen wipers!

You get to buy new brakes for your car. Actually, this is a very intelligent question. I've always been told this is one way to tell if the transmission is slipping. You start the car, let it idle and run an automatic transmission into gear and gently apply the gas. If the transmission is going, it will slip and not lug down the engine.

some cars automatically cancel the accelerator if the brake pedal is pressed at the same time (i think it is volkswagen cars not 100% sure )

Hi there you bounce your head off the steering wheel ha ha.
it will not do any harm unless you are travelling at speed if you have anti lock brakes you will stop straight. but usually if you press both at the same time you wont stop the car quick and you will speed up jock

In my car I would stop or stall. The brakes are more powerful than the engine,

the car will be pulling and be breaking at the same time, on a manual unless you put the clutch down and kept your foot on the excellerator the car still wants to pull away, if it is an automatic if you touch the brake it disengages the clutch.
