It won't hurt the engine but it will definitely cause the engine and transmission to die more quickly in the long-term. It's simply a matter of higher stresses and friction and wear. This is also true with things like door or suspension parts. The more stress you put a part through, the more you hasten its failure.
My key to keeping cars lasting is to be gentle most of the time, and have fun once in a while.
