Didn't Audi in the USA, a number of years ago, have consumer problems with the CC or throttle, accelerating or something. Anyway, they did a test where the driver flattened the accelerator, then hit the brakes hard, with both pedals to the floor. It stopped in a slightly longer stopping distance. Brakes have waaay more power the the engine.
