On my way home I rolled up to a stop sign and when I could I started to pull out. As I let the clutch out, the car acted like I killed it, but when I went to start it back up it acted almost like the battery had been disconnected. Nothing would come on like it had no battery. Power finally returned and my clock and radio had both reset. When everything finally decided to come back on it started right up and ran perfect the rest of the way home. I did a quick look over on the side of the road and my terminals where attached good and fuses where fine. Any ideas on what happened or where to start looking tomorrow?

Yeah that would be a good thin to check. (idk how much you know, this is pretty basic but ill tell you) Check the ground from the bat to your engine, then from your eninge to the frame/body ground of the car. make sure nothing is loose there as it can come loosened and do what your explaining
