Oh that is actually pretty easy @JerseyWasHome2. Two options I can share.I have read mystery novels with similar "plots" as to that. I've always wondered how anyone would be able to wedge anything against a gas pedal and not get caught in the car themselves as the engine is racing and the vehicle is trying to move.
The first is to block the drive wheel(s) with a "chock", like is done in drag racing / drag launches in motorsports. You load the transmission by engaging the throttle peddle as the car is held back with a chock. The engine revs but the car doesn't move (if done well) until the chock is quickly pulled away. The vehicle will then take off at a high rate of speed once released. Of course in the middle of the woods, this could be accomplished with a rock tethered to a rope perhaps.

The other is to raise the drive wheel(s) off the ground, like with a car jack / jack stand / or in the 'real world', rocks under the axle and digging out the earth below the drive wheel(s) so they spin while suspended and the engine revs high (if there is something holding down the throttle peddle). Then release the car to the ground and off it goes very fast.
I am sure there are other creative methods, but those two come quickly to mind.
p.s. this has NOTHING to do with the KR case, I am simply answering a question related to OP posts on other crimes.
