why is it that every car I have had and rode hard whether on the street or a track always ends up smoking from the engine bay. But in any car review no matter who’s doing the video weather’s professional or not they never smoked?

You don’t have the benefit of post production editing.

You’re doing it wrong.
Or, your presumably not brand new cars with a few miles on them have some dust and moisture of some sort on the exhaust.

If you’re my Montero, it’s because you have loose valve cover gaskets that shoot oil onto the exhaust manifold at highway speeds. Makes for cool reactions from people at the end of exits though

I was thinking this. Cars I’m talking about are mostly new 1k miles or less. Or even cars with under 40k. That’s about as long as I keep them

Luckily for me, all of the cars I’ve ever tracked have been brand new, full time track duty cars, and none of those ever have smoked. Even just a couple of drops of something, or fingerprints on exhaust can smoke for a long time.
