Gas Pedal Question
Is there a difference between the 90-96 version and the 84-89 version. Mine broke(the pivot) exiting turn 11 at Thunderhill raceway; promptly got stuck at wide open throttle going down the staightaway.

isn't the throttle body supposed to snap shut because of the spring? or did something get jammed?

I drove it home after my friend did a "Mcgiver" fix on it, it seemed ok despite the overrev.

I am confused, how did the throttle cable get caught up in the brake pedal??
Yes, ASR(like my 93 are different from the non-ASR), as my throttle cable goes to the ASR and then another one goes to the throttle body.

I bought RD RACING's gas pedal mount to keep things from braking. I dont see it on their site anymore, but if you email them they may have it. It was billet aluminum for the bracket that brakes, such as yours.

I have one
Sound like that thing breaking was a bit of a scare! I always wondered what would happen if one broke on the track.
I have an extra plastic one if can't find the R&D (aka Corvette Mike Billet replacement model). The one I have is out of a 1994. PM me if interested.
