i guess the exhaust manifold lit it up? damn if they would have had the extinguisher there a little sooner might have saved it.

Turns out it was a nitrous line


I thought it was the fuel line? Well at least I hope so since he installs nitrous for a living. Man that sucks, I hope he had some sort of track day insurance although I'm not certain it would pay for it.

Greatest blow up, oil down picture EVER!!

I red an article in Hot Rod a while back that apparently they had a huge version of the original shot that got stolen from their archives.

Oopsy!

The GM (pacific NW somewhere) at took one of the salemen out for a spin in a newly acquired Vette. Did not even make it 1 mile from the dealership. Salesman ended up with multiple fractures of both legs. If the car had hit the light pole 1 foot further back, he would be dead.

What happens to the GM in a case like that? Is he now looking for new employment?

Insurance should cover it, but the owners can't be to pleased. Depends if it is a family owned dealership or corporate.
