Out of interest - how heavy is the accelerator pedal? I'm thinking of the sneeze factor, mid corner...

I too am thinking along those lines, but in a more esterotic sense for those people who have a pressing flatulence problem particularly after consuming vast quantities of beer and chilly. The amount of force under those circumstance is by far greater to any that can be expelled elsewhere and has a decidedly adverse reaction on the seat in relationship to ones rear in addition to being altogether distracting to the passenger.
Put another way, its all in accordance to Boyle's Law of Volume and Pressure: In a confined orifice, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure that is applied when the temperature is constant. Stated another way, if you double the pressure, you reduce the volume by half and expel the gas in an exponentially level of real time effectiveness. And let all the dear readers who have never applied pressure to prove this hypothesis stand and be counted. Thus when experiencing this phenomenon when behind the wheel of a Cobra it may have adverse effects on ones steering abilities with a distinct probability of letting ones foot off the throttle, hence a potential TTO occurrence.
Sorry, I digress here, so how much power is enough?
