I'll bet it was. I've never had the throttle stick on me ever in any car, but I have blown u-joints before and I found that I instinctually threw the clutch in when it did. I think I would do the same thing with a stuck throttle and the engine would just bounce off the rev limiter until I came to my senses and shut the ignition off. But that's easy to say sitting here in my Barcalounger with a laptop on my knee. Who knows, in real life I might just skillfully aim the car at a fat oak tree.
