Did you idle down and coast to a stop after a run? If so, that's how you're running when you idle.

Take off from a dead standstill in boost, raise hell through a couple gears, and then cut the ignition off after you take your foot off the gas and before you hit the brakes.

They are lean in my opinion...a golden brown color is what you are looking for
