[QUOTE="Softballer77, post: 14798550, member: 151898"] So I ran another rally on Saturday which took us through Death Valley. Speeds got up there for long durations of time. I have 4.10s. I don't have track pack. I kept my eye on all my parameters and noticed the oil temp higher than usual but still in the green. During a top speed hit, I hit 177 in 5th. Right at that moment I heard and felt a loud pop under the floorboard and then saw dark smoke come out of the exhaust for a little bit. I immediately let out and coasted to a stop. Car came down to idle fine. I let it run for about a min just to let temps come down then shut it down. Look under car, no drips of anything. Brakes were a little steamy as we were averaging 130-140 for a good 50 miles or so, and slight smoke at the fire wall but again...nothing else. Started car, ran fine, no smoke but took it easy till getting to vegas. Drove next day and she drove just perfect. Got into it a few times and not a single hitch. Anyone have any idea what that was? Maybe was past the 6250 mark for longer than 8 seconds and it did a fuel cutoff on me maybe? Confused! [/QUOTE]
