shuddering, hesitation, and hard to start.. what's the problem?

I went to a track today with buddies of mine and drove about 80miles to that track..
When I was leaving the car would'nt start..actually very hard to start...
In order for me to start the car I had to gas it all the way down to the metal and then it would roughly start up..
And once it starts, I had to keep gasing the car or it will shut off and when the engine turns off it would shudder real bad..
Also while its running the engine sounds very much like a lawn mower.....
I have read some other posts about fuel flooding and one of the rotor not working and doesnt really seems to be my case.

So I ask for help from all you tech gods to help a poor and not-well educated guy out...

Thanks for your replys...

What kinda car is it?
It seriously sounds like the engine let go, so be prepared for the worst...
