Open throttle.. Pulsating on gas pedal...

When I'm driving my car, the pedal is fine. If I give some more throttle its still fine. But when I go to floor it, completely to the floor (or very close to it), I can feel the gas pedal pusating. I was thinking maybe since the throttle plates are open its allowing a lot of air in, but the turbulence is so much that it makes the plates oscillate a little, which would shake the pedal cable. So then maybe I can feel a pulsating type feel. Its slight pulse, but its there. Is this normal? Whats the explaination for it?
Thanks.

Have you checked the throttle return spring? Not sure if this would cause your problem, I'm kind of unclear of it. But it's something to check.

C'mon guys, one of you has to have the same type of pulsating. The pulsating almost makes me want to take my foot off the pedal, its just doesn't feel right, that pulsating shouldn't be there. Whats up with it?
