I don't have a bluetooth OBD unfortunately, but let me try to describe the best I can so you can replicate this (maybe?).

You're at 35 MPH, 2nd gear at around 3000-4000 RPM, approaching a red light that's 5 car lengths away. Cute girl on the right side of the sidewalk, shift into 1st gear, car blips, revs up to around 5000 RPM and you brake while coming to the light, the girl gives you the 'wtf, what an asshole look". Now as you're at around 10 MPH with your foot on the brake, as you think the car will come to a complete stop, the car surges forward again, like a jolt.
