Engine Mechanical problem
1999 Vauxhall Vectra Two Wheel Drive Automatic 153000 miles

I was a stupid woman, i took my son to watch fast and furious, he suggested i tried to drive like they do! I thrashed my car etc. and the next day my car revs between 1000-2000 revs without accelerator pressure, as tho its stuck?The rev counter rises and falls between 1000-2000 continuously? it is using more fuel obviously, and sounds when at traffic lights like i want to race everyone, I need to fix this myself as am a single parent and cant afford the garage prices...Any chance someone could tell me what to do please?? Thanks Ann-Marie xx
