Ok here's my question. My car smokes at high RPM we determined earlier that it is oil control rings... But why does it only do it sometimes? I can take her up to like 7k and nothing happens one day the next time i drive it'll do it after 5k.....what gives? It especially likes to do it when a punk turd in a celica pulls up beside me and i have to literally "smoke" him. Innocent Birds and mosquitos are dying almost everyday... I let the car warm up for 7-10minutes every day every time i drive it....it doesn't make sense to me. Is there a crack in one of the apex seals or something that makes it only leak oil every once in a great while? The funny thing is i'm not using barely any oil at all but i leave a fog horn worthy cloud behind me on high rpm launches.....

My friends car did the exact same thing. The block went to Kevin (hypnytyz7), but I never got word on what exactly was wrong.
