Is low rpms + high load bad for an engine?

if not.. motors go BOM

I can't imagine a late model porsche or audi that wouldn't have the computer control to deal with the situation. I'm quite sure that if you were in 6th, even as low as 1k RPM, and floored it, it would figure it out and slowly pull itself out of it. I'm not saying that's great for the bearings, but you could probably do it a thousand times in a row if you really wanted to.
