#4 of 20 Smoking the tires by dyess5 Feb 27, 2008 (1:55 pm)
I own an 02 Q45 Sport and can not get the car to break the tires loose unless I slide it side-ways after doing about 20mph. Is mine just slow or what? I was thinking about adding a windshield washer pump and canister to squirt over the rear tires using baby oil.(just for fun) I am told it is alot of smoke ! ! ! ! I have the computer update and yes tracking controll is off. Replies to this message: ivan_99 (Feb 27, 2008 4:47 pm) dyess5 (Mar 31, 2008 1:33 pm)

Replying to: dyess5 (Feb 27, 2008 1:55 pm) Have you tried brake torquing it? When I attempted to hold the brake and gas at the same time it didn't rev any higher...it's like the computer decided the brakes are on so it won't send any gas.   I've had the tires break loose when going around a corner...with a slight over-steer with the back end swinging out about 1-2 feet; have to keep on the gas or it'll tuck it self back in line...not much in a straight line though...   It's powerful under way with good kick down...but definitely not a sports car Replies to this message: dyess5 (Mar 31, 2008 1:33 pm)

Replying to: ivan_99 (Feb 27, 2008 4:47 pm) You are correct it is not a sports car, but with 340hp 300lbs, 245-45-18 tires, rear wheel drive, and more, it is attempting to be one. I understand that creating alot of smoke is more of an American Muscle thing, that is why I have the Mustang, but it is still fun.   Mine does the same thing when holding the break. The computers are too smart. It will not rev over 1k.   If moving forward about 10 mph and cutting it right or left (while stomping the gas and VTC off) the car lets loose and puts a hell of show on !   I have read that some Q45's will cut loose all the way threw the gears and some will not. Just wandering what is wrong with mine. I have had the flash update and did notice performance enhancements but not to the extreme that I want !
