I've seen plenty give a bit of a puff. I'm not talking huge amounts here.

My observation is that if you are a police officer and you total a brand new Golf R .. you can get away with it

^ ouch!!
My observation for the day is about people who underestimate the little Golf. A guy at work recently purchased a Toyota Celica (early 2000 model with the 1.8L VVVT-I engine) and hit me up today for a drag. And its the 4speed auto to boot. He genuinely thinks his "sports car" will beat the Golf......:facepalm:
Tempted to send him my dyno printout....
Should line up with him for a giggle.
lol, even I'd have a go against one of those. :)
I actually had a nice run with a e36 M3 through a few roundabouts connected by straights.Quote:

I wouldn't mind having a bit of a go with something a bit more special like an M3 / 911 / C63 AMG etc to see how it goes. I guess anything that is doing 0-100kph in the low to mid 5 second barrier would be a good race.Quote:

I had the O2 sensor in the drivers side exhaust pipe with the valve still connected.......... and for about 10 runs too :facepalm:, we don't usually look at the Dynos sensor anyway but still it looks rather amusing
By smoke I mean unburnt fuel.
Noticed it on a couple of cruises - drove besides a GIAC tuned one on the F3 and it gave quite a belch hitting it on an uphill section.
I've got no idea with mine, haven't seen anything of any note.
