That may be, but they still haven't addressed the cause of people not being able to stop the cars. In any car, even at WOT, the brakes should be able to overcome the engine and stop the car. C&D tested it on a Toyota Camry and from closed throttle to WOT, the distance required to stop the car from 100 mph only increased from 347 ft to 435 ft...less than 100 ft! Even a 540 hp supercharged Ford Mustang was able to stop at WOT; it took about 3x the distance as at closed throttle, but the point is, the brakes still stopped the car.
