What happens if you unplug the TPS - I know you would normally get an FI warning light but I don't know if it will run without?
When this incident happened, I was on my first or second lap out so the engine wasn't that hot yet.

I have now verified that the TPS is securely attached, couldn't rotate it around the screw, and could only tighten the screw by about 1/16 of a turn. I didn't try unplugging it, though.
