Default Black spots on garage floor behind tail pipes

There are two sooty black spots behind each tail pipe on my Mustang. Can someone tell me what this is from and do I need to fix it? The spots look more like drips of a liquid rather than smoke spot.

It's just carbon that is collected in the tail pipes, when the car shuts off condesation collects in the tail pipes and the water runs out taking the sooty carbon with it.
