I'm a noob here but I have this to offer:

I've only seen this once in my 2011 370z - I lost the back end and spun 540 degrees into the other lane to face the way I came from. When the car stopped spinning there was still serious reverse momentum and I left the car in gear for a split second. When I drove off I hit limiter at 3500 in any gear so I pulled over and let it cool for 5 minutes. I cranked her up and drove her hard the rest of the day with no issues.

I guessed it had somehow sensed that I had overheated the clutch and never thought of it again. I've never seen it since.
