91 V8Q - Soot in Tail Pipe



I am a relatively new owner(two weeks) of 91V8Q with 91K miles.  Love the car
and want to keep it running well. Notice that there is some black soot in the
tailpipe.  Is this normal?  Car does not appear to be burning oil.    There is
a very slight hesitation on acceleration.   Otherwise, get it to 4000rpm and
say goodbye to the stoplight.

Already have back roadtrip planned with a friend with a dodge viper who likes
to drive fast.  Has to wait till spring since if snow hits, he become a little
red sled which slides into the nearest stationary object.

Spent part of yesterday waxing  the outside and treating the leather to
Christmas carols since this was my present to myself.

TIA
