This is the result if your accelerator cable wraps around the brake line.

A good lesson.

I had the accel and clutch cable intertwined to the end of the accel cable, but never the brake line.

I bet it would result in a very unsmooth pedal.

up on jackstands, not into a corner with a high rate of speed.

It so happen to happen to be Evil Herbie, (Evil Herb for short)
