Idea for a smokescreen (in the spirit of that other thread)

I'm taking off the rear wiper and washer on my car, but I have a good (kinda) use for that pouch and nozzle. Leave the wires leading to the dash and run the nozzle to just above the exhaust pipe. Then fill it with water/atf/mmo/whatever you want. This way, when the liquid hits my freaking intensely heated exhaust pipe, BAM, smokescreen. Eh?

That could be very useful for tailgaters.

you could also dump some MMO in the Sub-zero starting fluid tank, run a switch to the dash and BAM! No more tailgater.

I just down shift to a lower gear, let it rev up real high and then back off and the smoke pours out. Yes, my motor is on the way out but might as well have fun with it till it blows or has no compression. It has 170,000 on it now but still runs good.
