black soot buildup on street from car

i started my 85 300D up today, and let it warm up for a few minutes. i gave it a little gas a few times; nothing over 2500 rpm. i noticed later that there was a bunch of soot (i guess that's what it is) on the street beneath where the tailpipe was. i only let it warm up for maybe 5 minutes...is this normal?
