Stalling the 7AT

CharleyGFX · 02-28-2011, 07:51 AM

So last night, I was driving home around 1AM. There were no cars on the road, so I figured I have some fun. I turned off traction control, put it in M mode and decided I was gonna drift the car, as I turned right, at the four way intersection. I was coming at it in 2 gear, went side ways and started sliding. Now, during this slide, I guess I was having too much fun? that I forgot to take my foot off the gas... So I spun out of control and was doing doing doughnuts in the middle of the road. After the 2nd circle, I tried to correct the car, and drive off. But EVERYTHING just turned off on me and my z started rolling backwards into the median. I freaked out and pulled the E brake. Put the car into Neutral and tired to start the car again.. it did not work. So I put it in park and got out of the car to see if I hit anything. Got back in the car and tried to start it.. it worked normal again. I drove it to school this morning and everything was fine.

Can anyone tell me WHAT happened and should I be worried about it? Hope what I wrote was clear enough for you guys to understand what happened.
