Post T/A revved itself to 3,000 RPM, normal?

This has happened twice (and I've only had the car about 3 weeks)

If I drive it hard (drive it like you stole it) ...

Good hard launch in first, powershift into second .... then when I hit the clutch, let off the gas and put the car in neutral to just coast ... after a second or two, it just revs itself up to about 3,000 RPM and stays there a few seconds.

What's up with this? Anyone else?

the only time I ever had that happen was cause a battery terminal was loose and everytime the motor revved it messed with the connection and I got a sort of "spike" and the comp went crazy for a few....check your battery terminal connections and all of your grounds....

It doesn't hunt for idle, but I noticed that it does idle a little higher than the Z28 A4 did. The T/A idles around 900 RPM
