Yes, Thanks Ken,
I did notice on a couple of occasions, black smoke coming from the exhaust momentarily when the vehicle was started when the engine was hot. I thought it may be because the current engine tune is a bit on the rich side. I could also smell the oil when he came in to pit when the oil temperature was showing 150 degrees C.
