bad thing happened today

Drgnracin72 · June 10th, 2007, 10:35 PM

well, i get a call about 9:30 this morning and its my mom, shes says "are you ready to hear this?" im like oh shit who died? but shes says well i drive your car to church this morning, and when she said that my heart just sunk, cuz all i had running through my head was her getting into an accident.

anyways she tells me she was passing a car and when she got done passing, she let off the throttle and it was stuck at WOT, not a good thing. anywyas she frekaed out, took it out of gear and put it in nuetral and its just slapping the piss out the rev limiter(thank god for a rev limiter) anyways so she thinks she hurt the motor or something, but she told me she would be taking it to my tuner and builder and have him look at it, and if it is hurt, shes told me shed pay to get it fixed.

anyone else have a problem with their 99-04 sticking at WOT, she siad the pedal just stayed on the floor like it was caught in the carpet. anywyas it was kinda scary for her and she freaked out.i told her anytime it happens, just hit the ignition off and pull over. anyways that was my scary experience for the day

HMUSN · June 10th, 2007, 10:39 PM

wow.

that's normally a 03-04 Cobra thing.

there is a recall on it I believe.

if you look it up I am sure there are ppl who have done the carpet cut mod.

glad you mom and the car is ok.

( you got my pm about the checks in the mail right?)

she probably just couldn't mentally bring herself to take her foot off the gas.. its a common problem when you are driving a fast car

Tony_90fox · June 10th, 2007, 11:11 PM

My go cart did that when i was little, i smacked right into my garage door because i couldnt make the turn at the speed...I must have been going at least 15 MPH or something...Glad your ma is okay, hope the car is alright!

03 R Code · June 10th, 2007, 11:11 PM

Damn, I'm glad that nothing happened to your mom.

Never heard a thing about a throttle sticking full open.

232stang · June 11th, 2007, 12:02 AM

buy a new spring? hell glad to hear both your special ladies arent hurt though, you might want to get that checked out.

MustangMatt96GT · June 11th, 2007, 12:54 AM

Man that sucks! Why was she driving your car anyway?

TurboLX · June 11th, 2007, 12:57 AM

happens to me all the time, it gets stuck on the carpet, and it get effing scary cuz when you got damn near 500 horseys and the gas pedal gets stuck, man i nearly shat my pants, just check the rugs and the floor mats

Tony_90fox · June 11th, 2007, 01:10 AM

So what the hell do you drive Turbo? lol, i thought you had an SVO!

MustangMatt96GT · June 11th, 2007, 01:10 AM

he has a 347 turbo!

Tony_90fox · June 11th, 2007, 01:12 AM

Ahhhh, okay that clears it up.

TurboLX · June 11th, 2007, 01:24 AM

no its a 2.3 Turbo, my last was just a 347 N/A

TurboLX · June 11th, 2007, 01:25 AM

and its not an SVO, its an EX-5.0L 1990 Vert, and put in a built 2.3 Turbo, its still quite in the works, but it will be finished this summer, and i will have mucho pics

G.T. Rags · June 11th, 2007, 01:28 AM

That happened to me once in my 03 GT. It only lasted for about 2 seconds though, and then slapped back. Never happened again though.

Its only a Cobra thing because of the metal pedals (the style). All those after market pedal covers have that potential. Not sure if you have them on your car.

B0B · June 11th, 2007, 02:04 AM

i used to have a couple nitro R/C cars, those fuckers stuck at WOT all the time and always ended up hitting curbs or fence posts. god i wasted so much money on those things back before i started driving REAL cars. lol. i'm glad she figured it out and slowed down safely. at least she didnt panic, let go of the wheel, throw her hands up in the air, and scream. yanno i've seen it happen when an accident could have been easily avoided. i always wonder why insurance costs less for girls.

LMAO, I still have a HPI Super RS4 and a Traxxas Sportmax... Non work since I decided not to waste any more money on them... I must of spent upwards of a grand, and I never bought a Fail safe

MustangMatt96GT · June 11th, 2007, 02:10 AM

TheUNZippee! · June 11th, 2007, 02:47 AM
