Default Smoking problem at the track

Hey guys,

Last week at the track, right when I let off the gas at the finish line, a ton of white smoke came out of my exhaust. It looked like it was out the left side (I have true duals). The car drove fine, I checked for leaks and there were none, and it didn't smoke at all in the pits or anything. This started on the 2nd run of the night. It didn't happen at idle, cruising, or WOT. Only when I let off at the finish line. Do any of you know what it could be? Thanks in advance.

When you go fro WOT to no throttle at all you make a lot of manifold vacuum, you might be pulling some oil past the rings(doubt it) or probably the valve guides. No big deal, it happens to the best that get beat on on a regular basis and especially budget built rides with cheaper/used parts.
