Default smoke when i rev my car ...?????

well Last night i finally got some action, i raced a 06 mustang gt. when we were lined up i had in nutral and reved my engine to some pretty high RPM's i noticed smoke comingout of my exhaust. i think it was white... couldnt really tell. Is this something to worry about??? i dont know if this is related to that, but my change oil light came on today for a few seconds and then went off..i didnt reset it after my last oil change so that could be why...but getting back to the smoke i also remember seeing some white smoke coming out on several mornings. not a huge cloud of it but noticeble....any ideas to what it is???

1. Don't beat on your motor without it being under some sort of load.
2. You might have bad valve seals, or they could be on their way out.

Was it a cold morning? Dew on the ground? You park outside or inside?
