Question Car smokes when revved to 4k

This week end I lined up against my friend and launching I revved to 4k, I couldnt see it but he said that a cloud of smoke was coming out from underneath the hood, so we pull over into a parking lot and with the hood open and him reving the engine to 4k I could not see any smoke, but apparently it smoked when we were lining up after we checked it. Im confuzzled, the next morning I checked all fluids and besides oil being a little low everything was good.

See Video http://www.waruyoi.com/LastNight.wmv

The video does not do much justice becasue of the quality but you can still see it. 3 witnesses noticed it, one of them being my passenger. Only thing I thnk it could be is the Exhause comming from under the car? Other than that the performance is right.
