    Josh,

    I assume you have an automatic ("park"), otherwise it sounds like it'd be a clutch out of adjustment (or worse).

    I'd have someone look/listen for you when you can make it grind.

    Congrats, be careful, and good luck on your first run.

    Ha! Glad it wasn't anything to do with safety. ;)

    J/K. Glad it wasn't anything serious.
