Thanks... any chance I could hurt the motor doing this?

I guess I really messed up on how I asked the question. :nono: I have every intention of making sure the car is running perfect ahead of time. I can handle most other kinds of breakdowns during the race I just wanted a simple plan if the turbo gives me trouble.
