Default throttle won't shut down?

With traction control shut off, i pinned the gas pedal, tires broke loose let up on gas peddle - throttle did not shut off, seems like i was fighting cruise control that would'nt disengage I had to snap the gas peddle a few times to stop the engine! The engine did drop in rpm but only by about half, engine also sounded labored like the brakes were being applied. good thing i had plenty of road ahead of me to deal with the problem. It doesn't seem to do it with the traction control on. Is it a throttle problem or a traction control problem? Anyone hear or had this happen?

Ya mines doing something similar only mine does it when i hit the resume switch for the cruise control... it speeds up but doesnt stop at the speed it's set at and just keeps accelerating, if i switch it off and tap the throttle a couple times it finally releases, trying to figure it out as well
