Default Vibration after burnout

So my car was in Park for like ten minutes after starting her, and as I was about to leave some co-workers asked me to do a burnout. I didnt want to go overboard, so i just let on the gas instead of doing a standstill. So after I do a little screech show my car got a weird vibration and I could feel it in the steering wheel when Stopped. the wierder thing is that the vibration goes completely away after I step on the gas, but as soon as my car stops it feels like if something gets un-engaged and starts vibrating. Then when I step on the gas it takes like a sec. for the trans to kick in and I feel a little kick.It did This at every stop. The trans. went through all gears flawlessly, it was just when I would come to a stop and take off???

Thanks for all the help you guys! well Im going to try changing my fluid tomorrow and see what goes from there. so far its been alot of restoraton with this car. when I got it, it was a mess! It took me a good 3 months to get it back to stockish shape. I still dont know what has been done to the motor, as far as I know everythings stock. the only thing that was worrying me was that my lever has the cruise control button pushed in and it wont come out. it looks like someone removed the cruise control. Is that a mod or was it probably not working? Would it be better to put it back on?Thanks again for all the help!
