Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Seriously, those were some cool flames. I'm sorry the guys car and engine caught on fire though. Doesn't look like anyone was hurt which is great.

Have to give the fire crew credit, response time, quantity, and quality.

Got it under control a little quicker than this one :

Im not familliar with the T/F cars but don't they have an ignition kill that the crew can access? Should have been shut down as soon as the leak was detected. A good 15 sec of leakage as the crew member was trying to secure it.

Maybe the lean shut off caused it to rev?
