Grey Smoke?

Normally i run in the middle tune on my superchips and at WOT get the normal black smoke. Today i filled the tank, gave her some DK, and switched to the highest tune ive got just for giggles. I cant remember if its always been like this but at WOT the smoke is more grey than black.
I would think that with more fuel i would get more black any thoughts?

I am hoping it was the sun. she runs real strong and has never been that much of a smoker with the superchips, dp might be different but just wondered if it was a symptom of poor mixture or something.

Thanks kris, ur truck any better?
