Someone said the other day the my car should be called Christine, cant remember whoyou were, sorry. Anyway im starting to seriously think it has christines mind after tonights drive home, was some scary sh*t i tell thee

 

When you push the accelarater the car will obviously accelarate, what happens when you dont?

Well my car decides to take off.

Near the bottom the the accelarater pedal i noticed that the car seemed to stick slightly, so i do what you all would do and push it down a bit more, i hear a little click as if ive just pressed a button and the car took off from about 70 up to 115 in about 6 or 7 seconds, now thats all well and good apart from i didn't have my foot on the pedal, brakes didn't slow her down or anything, it just kept speeding up and was going up very fast too, couldn't stop her, it was accelarating as if i was in third or something even though i was in 5th.

 

The only way to stop it was putting the clutch down which then made the revs fly off the scale almost, then dropped down and cut out at 115mph or just over.

Now im scared, WTF . . . :confused:

Doesn't look good to be honest mate, just out of curiousity, did the accelarator actually stick or did you just say that to bail you out of trouble?
