Radiator Problem

Ok, so my rx7 is stored for winter, and today the roads looked great, didnt have any snow so I took it out around the block. After 10-15min, I came back in the garage and noticed some thin white smoke(looked like steam) coming from under the hood. I took a look and it seemed to be coming from the radiator. Does that mean that my rad needs to be changed, or can something else be the cause of that problem?

First, check and see where it's exactly coming from. It could just be coming from a damaged/brittle radiator hose. Are you still using the stock radiator?
