Guys, don't make fun of this car going up in flames. It's never cool when it happens to anyone.

I'm not sure if insurance will cover it if they can prove it was caused by the mods.

Wow that really sucks. I like those cars alot. That one looked like a really nice ride. Nothing could be worse than watching your hard work burn to the ground right in front of you. Sorry for whoevers ride that is.

I've watched a few vids of Grand Nationals burning to the ground, plus that Z06 not too long ago, plus that Talon recently. Now this. I am definetly carrying a fire extinuisher with me at all times in my car from now on. You never know what can happen. I'd shoot myself rather than watch my Turbo Trans Am burn to the ground thats for sure.
