controlled speed while reversing

have you noticed that when reversing the gas pedal will not respond to full throttle? cool i just noticed this today, the car reverses in a fixed speed and does not allow you to give more throttle, maybe it is a safety feature.

just wanted to share, this is for 5AT.

Seriously, I've noticed when pulling J-turns the car doesn't come around at a good 90 degrees i'm falling short at about 85 degrees. Would flooring it out of reverse work better for escaping Goldfinger?
