Default Please help!!!

Sorry, Not sure if this is the correct place for this question.
My car (a 2000 M6 camaro) idles high when you are driving (hot or cold) when you push in the clutch or take it out of gear still rolling until the car slows down.
The car has to be going about 20mph before the idle slows down to about 900rpm. When it's rolling faster than 20mph it stays idled up at about 2000rpm.
Not sure what the deal is! It revs up and comes right back to idle just fine sitting still....
Anybody please help!!!

The throttle body closes all the way. Its free and smooth. I can run the car sitting still and it idles down as soon as i let off the throttle. The only time it idles high is when the car is rolling over about 20mph.

My car does the samething but intermittently. I think it might have to do with the IAC. Some other people have sugested a vacume leak before.
