Stop car motion.

Close Bottle (this is why my opener is wired direct to battery vice "Switched")
Fight fire with extinguisher until track guys Firefighters show up

If the backfire blows the injectors/fuel rail off the intake, thats likely when you will get a fire, as the electric pump will keep going with the key on.

I suppose... a buddy had a backfire and it was on fire, it was just buring the air filter.
