had a friend following me today, i pounded first, didnt redline, just accelerated rather quickly and he said i had black smoke. wasn't blue so i know it isn't oil. what is it? no smoke when idle. also, when i just lightly accelerate in first gr, there is sometimes a delay between the registry of my foot pushing the pedal and the cars response in actually acclerating. any ideas?

 

Sound like you are running rich...
