normal right?!?!
Yes, normal. The "planer" oxygen sensor hasn't heated up and the ecu is keeping the rev's up like that until it gets a proper voltage signal from the oxygen sensors.

You probably also notice that this does not last too long. BTW, I wouldn't "reset" the car. This behavior is normal.
