Default lots of white smoke upon hard acceleration

I also have a complete loss of power to the wheels, some times more loss of power than other times. when I floor my car LOADS of white smoke come from the tail pipe. I think it might be a coolant leak or a oil leak.

Tire smoke?

Are you low on oil/coolant?

Blown turbo?

+1 also pull the spark plugs and check to see if there is water on them and in the cyl. sounds like a blown head gasket to me from the way you are describing it.
