got stuck on some ice and...
well i got stuck on some ice and so i sat there spinning my tires for about 2 mins getting it up pretty fast too lol, got it to almost 70 w/o relizing it... so then i backed up to a spot with no ice and gunned it up the incline over the ice... so my tires broke loose and i spun my way up the hill then when i hit the top of the hill and my tires caught i burned out for a second then my car jsut shut off...
no idiot lights are on now though when i restarted it so my first guess of the abs doing something seemed kinda farfetched but it may still be?
it drove fine for the rest of the night so i dunno what happend... is this good? cuz i only have 6 more days on my warrenty and i cant go in on xmas so only 5....

your transmission was prolly in a higher gear with no traction then it hit the pavement with full traction and it died, not different than a manual and trying to start out in a high gear.
i did this a few times but it was in 4x4 and i was pulling out a shrub, when the strap stretched all it could it pulled my truck back causeing a sudden change in direction, which resulted in my truck dieing.
i wouldnt worry about it.

Yea my truck stalled in 4wd too one day, i was like "what the hell, how did i stall an automatic?" but when your tires are spinning, i dont think the speedo is correct, because it jumps all over the place, when i had my car and did burnouts, it jumped to 110 and bounced off the stopper at 135

Last I hear the speedo was connected to the VSS line, which is connected to a sensor on the tail section of your transmission. So the speedometer should indicate how fast the transmission and driveshaft are spinning.
It likely 'jumps around' a lot because there is very little resistance to the powertrain, unlike when you have traction, where the weight of the vehicle acts as a 3000 lbs damper..
Of course all bets are off w/ your old car and the bouncing off the stopper behavior.
No, and not much other than super sticky or studded tires will do much really..
