Question if i messed up my tranny in my 370z

I'm pretty sure you cannot put the car in park unless you step on the brake first. If you could put into park while rolling, the rear wheels would lock up.

There is a mechanical lockout on Park if you are moving (faster than about 5mph), the lockout is what caused the grinding noise and shouldn't have caused any real damage.
