help/ white smoke
hey guys i was on the freeway like 2 hours ago, had four passengers in the car. and was driving the car pretty smooth. i remember having to floor it once to get in front another car then i had to brake really hard cause the car in front of me slammed on his breaks. then i noticed as i was exiting the freeway i was leaving a huge trail of white smoke! looks like i litteraly did a burnout for 20 second and drove off. people even rolled down there windows to tell me my car was smoking. we all got out and it looked like it was coming from under the engine. everyone said it smelled like burnt rubber. we let the car cool down for an hour then started it back up. i took everyone home witch was like 5 miles away using just side streets and it only smoked a little bit. prolly gunna get it checked tomarrow but what do you guys think? i bought sooooo much car audio i fear selling all of it for the repair. but you gotta do what you gotta do.

You mean JB weld? on the radiator?
Was there any coolant or oil leaks under the car or in the engine bay? Its a good sign that it did not overheat. While you are looking around, double check your fluid levels and top off anything that is low.
