Default Does this happen to anyone else?

So tonight me and some buddies went to a wet parking lot and had some fun. I was drifting a bit and ended up spinning around a few times...when I finally stopped it was like my car was in neutral. But it was in drive(I have an auto btw). I had to put it in neutral turn it off and turn it back on. It happened a few times. Anyone else experience this or know why it was doing this? It was tons of fun but this scared me a bit.

You should read your manual more carefully.

Its right there under safety devices.

Please tell me you got it on video? You know it's unlawful to do doughnuts without documenting it on film...

Was your traction control on or something? I did a similar ahem spirited driving in the parking lot at my work and it was sweet. But I didn't have your no-drive problem. Mine is a Manual. Yup....another useless contribution to your post

Actually...yes it is on video. LOL
Gotta wait for my friend to host it though. In the mean time if you wanna watch something else we did that night. He went tray drifting with his civic. For those of you that don't know tray drifting is when you put mcdonalds trays under the rear wheels of a FWD car, put the parking brake on and do donuts and crap. It's so sweet. 4 perfectly good trays now have holes through them and the road has plastic skid marks on it. LOL

Haha...yea. Just before that we were saying how we need to make one of those street racing chronicles videos. We're going to make 100lbs of rice and dump it on the worst car we can find. LOL

I actually heard about this and know how you can fix it. Take your z to the dealer and tell them you want to trade it in for a 6 speed.
