Wondering if I have anything wrong? But thanks, its good to know it
should be there. So now I have a little project - as if there wasn't
enough to learn with GPL!

Your setup sounds the same as mine, except I don't have the nocd patch.
I see the tire smoke. Same Matrox G400, D3D, etc.

Not sure why that is - if you look at videos of real 1967 starts you can
hardly see the cars for all the tyre smoke!
Perhaps the frame rate hit at the start was thought to be too much
already....

When your braking, your tires are probably already pretty warm so
dragging them 25 ft would cause smoke :)
It goes to show how realistic GPL is.
