She's acting up....

Its not momentum, trust me, I have lots of experience at speed (on a track), and know how a car should feel/act in turns. The problem my car has, and I can assume others as well have, is that the car maintains a throttle in these situations. Its not normal, and hopefully I will be able to recreate it with a tech in the car. It does it for seconds in a long sweeping turn, so there is enough time for the car to slow (and when I say slow, I mean 1mph), you can hear the throttle (through the exhaust note not changing), until the situation changes (brakes or straightening) and then it releases the throttle. My guess is something with the g forces are causing a sensor to change.
