mine used to smoke black, but now it smokes white. It only does it if I run it really hard though.
I hope that when I get my new exhaust it'll stop.

See now, the engine in the 87 I bought smokes like a freight train. It isn't really bad unless you rev it. Then there is enough black smoke to get my car confused with a forest fire.
I figure on getting it Referbished.
Good luck with the rides guys.

mine lasted a couple months once it started smoking. They had to stop the auto X a couple times to let the track clear. Hehehe. I am still waiting to do a rebuild. If you take it easy it may last longer.
