996 on the track film!

Continuing the canon of 996 films! Looking at what the car is like at the track this time.

You may be able to help me too. It’s not shown on the film but at one point after a sharp right>left I got a lot of White smoke coming out the back. It cleared almost immediately and then continues to do it a bit on start up but then clears. No warning lights or anything and Google brings up a lot of stories about this. Oil was right at the top of the indicator and I think some has got through a vent somewhere. Any thoughts?

Enjoy the film anyway! Such a great car! I am genuinely enjoying my ownership!

Someone may chime in w more wisdom, but from being a long time lurker I have read a few posts about the air oil separator on the 996 cars (non GT/turbo). From what I have read, and do further research, it store stuff then allow it into the intake through a sudden g force change. Or it can fail.
