Well, actually, Thor, "balls to the wall" is a reference to aviation. The grip on the throttle and the handle controlling the fuel mixture are ball-shaped, so full speed is when they're the as close to the front bulkhead as possible.
Just something for anyone who thought it might have to do with human anatomy.

Thanks for the explaination.
I didn't know it was an aviation term.
I did know it means - all out / full speed ahead.
Kinda like rock out with your cock out!
