Default Re: the wheels on my car go round and round (broke)

That's due to the rotational inertia of the interior parts of your tranny, like the tranny fluid. You'll notice that you can stop both the wheels (like when you set it down) without adversely affecting the car's idle or performance. Completely normal. I posted a topic on this quite a while back; I was worried about it too.
