Hi guys, had a strange problem yesterday which i hope somebody may be able to shed some light on....
going down the A406, I took a sharp tight left hander little slip road quite quickly to join on to the A1. The A1 was empty so i floored it. My route in orange. Where the orange line ends, there was an interuption in power as if i had hit the rev limiter, but i was nowhere near the rev limiter. in my rear view mirror was a huge, i kid you not huge cloud of white smoke, F1 engine blow up levels of white smoke which did not clear for about 30 secs. There were no warnign lights and no more smoke despite some hard driving afterward. (not the tight left hander again though)

This happened last month at a similar tight left hander (but not the exact same corner) followed by a long straight of long acceleration. I booked it in to Porsche straight after but they could not find any problems.
Have called them and they are having a think, i will prob end up booking it in again for further investigation. Would like to get it sorted as my first Ring trip is in Aug and am aware that the Carousels are tight left handers!
any thoughts/ideas appreciated....
