Traction Control, Sticky gas pedal, Ice mode???

[DannyGT]

So, I have been meaning to read a couple of those brake threads but just have been really slammed with work lately. One thing I keep picking out from random threads is the word 'ice-mode' and how people are getting this condition particularly when upgrading brakes.

Now, I haven't upgraded my brakes yet, but I have experienced quite an awkward sensation a few times since I have owned the Z.

Where to begin....

The first time I experienced this was when taking a long sweeping turn aggressively (with traction control on) and upon letting go of the gas the car just seemed to coast and hold my mph...almost like it went into a cruise control mode and kept me on this perfect line where it knows just how far I can take the car without losing traction...I remember thinking to myself "WOW What was that? Some kind of active traction control system like in Formula 1"

This sensation of the gas pedal having a mind of its own has happened maybe 4-5 more times in the last year but almost under similar conditions. Until about 3 days ago. It was a gorgeous night and we were tuning my friends MR2 Turbo with my car, a supra, rs4, and m3. So we are all kind of taking turns doing some baseline pulls with him where suddenly after one of my pulls I downshifted into 2nd after leaving the highway and my car just held this low mph and wouldn't stop. This was, mind you, in a straight line...

I knew it was the same sensation I've had before, just never having felt it in a straight line kind-of threw me for a loop. What happen next, really had me wondering whats going on...

I put it in neutral and coast the last 50 yards or so to the stop light and as I begin coming to a stop, my car decided to just keep the revs at 2k. I looked down thinking my carpet or something was hitting the pedal but nothing! So I have make sure my foot was on the brake and it just continued to keep the rpm at 2k...It did this for about 5-6 seconds when I simply blipped the throttle and it settled down to idle and then it never happened again.

Sorry this had to be so long and hopefully I'm explaining my self clearly but has anyone else experienced this and/or is this ice-mode that you guys are talking about specifically where the car feels as if its holding a light throttle whether in turns or not??

Thanks!
