It backfires for a reason, timing issue etc. install the safety equipment and tune it right and it will be ok.

200 shot and low 11's, I'm surprised he even tried putting it out. I'd watch it burn and **** on the ashes if that was my car.

Possible the stand alone fuel system was leaking? Anyway that sucks, but now I guess he can get out of that 3v.

I'm not sure how much a fire extinguisher really would have helped here, looked like everything went to **** REALLY fast. I would think you'd need a fire suppression system for that kind of fire
