Black tailpipes

I've noticed that the inside of my right tailpipe tips are significantly more covered in soot than the inside of my left tailpipe tips. I have a MN6, Z51, with approximately 2K miles, most of which has been highway driving at 70mph, and I've only dug into the accelerator two or three times (after the 500 mile break-in of course). What does this mean? Is it something to be concerned about?

Thanks for the input.

Doesn't sound right. One side is running richer. Should look the same-- clean!!!

How about some pictures. We really like that on this forum

Mine get soot on all the tips. I clean them every week.
