This is exactly what I was referring to above. It happened to me on a colder day when I had turned onto a state highway and was doing normal, non-spirited, acceleration from roughly 20 to 60 (the speed limit) and the shift from 3 to 4 the tires chirped a little, with a little skittle, and fortunately for me and my passenger, regained grip. The temp was in the high 50's on a grooved new concrete roadbed.
