Overfueling???? Would have thought it would have been blue smoke if you were burning oil....Maybe it was unburnt fuel???

I have also seen this when the "lift" is activated in 2nd gear at 6.200rpm, though the description of the smoke's color was not exactly black.

I think the "smoke" tends to disappear if you pass the lift point few more times.

I guess it could be a momentarily bad mixture of fuel in combination with a strong move of previously condensed gases out of the exhaust.
