Hard to tell

The smoke cloud wasnt too concentrated to tell the colour. Seems to me more like grey/white

99%, that it is engine oil burning. Question still is: how much should it burn? how much smoke shout be even on car's fastest acceleration?

Under hard acceleration it's possible that it's a rich fuel mix.Our cars seem to have an issue with this if the carbon covered exhaust tips are any indication. Saying that, I have not noticed any smoke in mine (except vapor in cold weather).

maybe you are spining wheels .

in any case there is slight posibility that you loose oil thogh valve oil cups. not the end of the world as long as you do not loose it two fast. e.g. how many liters of oil do you add between oil changes?
