Default Engine Stall

I was doing a rare beat for the car and was doing a few donuts in a parking lot. I stalled it and when I started it up again it rann fine for a second then dipped down to around 300-400 RPM, without my help it shot back up to the 850 mark and has been fine ever since. Should I be concerned, or am I just a little paranoid?

Thanks in advance

Don't do donuts.
Easier said than done.

Ill keep an eye on it, if it does happen again would a IAC clean be a good idea or am I in more trouble.

Thanks again!

Donuts are very hard on your car.

Easy way to break an axle. Just trying to save you some repair costs
