i had a similar problem...

except mine was when i hit the brakes...

in short, its the Throttle Positioning Sensor, it doesnt see that you let off the gas, when you apply the brakes that hard....

if you hold the gas....and slam on the brakes....it kills your car.

did you hit your knee on the steering column, that could do it

also, if you have a lot of keys hanging onto your ignition key, the weight will **** it up

happened to me twice, almost got me killed

Something magnetic on your keyring maybe messin up your theftlock, thinks youre trying to steal your own car. Try taking everything off your ignition key and drive it see if it still happens
