running wierd...sometimes....

Ok, after the other night i was racing, the car was fine. Today, i go and give it a good run, and then go thru town slow, suddenly my car starts running like it was only firing one rotor, and had no power. i pulled over, and the car was burning oil, big cloud, then after a minute of running, it started running normal again and didnt burn anymore oil. later on in the day, i gave it a good run again, not burning any oil. Then, i went slo thru town again, and it did the above thing again, then, after a few minutes, back to normal. I checked my compression, i have 3 even bursts and 105 psi on the front, 100 on the rear rotor. What could my problem be? it only seems to burn the oil when it starts running like ****. After it runs right again, burns no more oil.


Plz help

thanx

Maybe your OMP is fritzing out on you, dumping large amounts of oil during the WOT runs, and it doesn't all get expelled/burnt, which becomes apparent when you slow down...

Only thing I can think of...
