Well, I read about the brake torque thing to help elliminate turbo lag and went out to a local backroad to give it a try. So I'm sat there with both feet to the floor and it feels like nothing is any different. Then I let it lurch forward a foot to see if the engine's RPM will climb. Still nothing. I THOUGHT.
I've got the radio playing so I can't here much but I happen to glance in the rear view mirror and to my horror(delight) there's a giant cloud of blue smoke from my one rear tire that I didn't think was doing anything.

COOL!!!!!!!!!!!

I go home and repeat it in front of my house for my car nut son and neighbor.

Hence the title of the post.

P.S. Does this mean the old girl is running pretty good, havn't had time to test anything yet.
 
Are you sure the smoke was blue???? Blue would mean that you are burns oil.
White smoke from a tire burn is normal.
Jim....Yes I've been called worst too :D
 
Thanx. Definately not from the engine. Maybe some oil or other on the road and it was at night.(or my eyesight).
