Question Smoke on High RPM shift

I had my wife behind me the other day and I started acting a little crazy on take off. I wound it up to about 6k in 1st and when I went to second she called me and said it puffed a little white smoke out both tail pipes and then that was it because I was getting into traffic. It is 99 SS with 114k on the odom. What all could this be and is something to worry about?

I was wondering it doesn't smoke at all any other time other than when I got to shift at high rpm and then it is only a puff

Mine is blue-ish when that happens, but from what I hear its either the valve seals or possibly rings...I hope its valve seals.
