Actually the technology of hooking the load peddle to a sensor input going into a computer and then connecting the throttle to a positioner controlled by said computer is an ugly thing. When I saw the first one, I said this is a disaster waiting to happen.

It looks like Toyota has proven me right. I have spent 30 years in process control working for a chemical company. I have seen some of the most brillant fail safe technological marvals fail where a simple device would not have. It just doesn't get much simpler than a couple springs and a cable.

That said a Cobra is not the car to give the throttle control to a computer. Too fast a car for you to react to a sudden uncontrolled WOT.
