Arrow T-Maxx Question

I have a one month old T-Maxx Classic (that is the 2.5 model, for those of you who don't know) and in the past few days I have noticed something strange. After I run about half a tank of fuel and I open the fuel tank, some smoke/steam comes out of the tank . I did not notice this before. It has been around 92 degrees here lately, and I wonder it the heat had anything to do with it.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Yeah. That's what I thought it was. I just don't want it to burst into flames in the middle of a run.



Driver: "Hey! Check this ou....oh. Wow.

Other Guy: "Dude. Your truck is on fire!"
