    Flames anyone?

    Just seeing some of the flames that come out of these cars are mental. Escorts was on gas whilst the scooby was just normal with a spark plug from what I can tell.

        Total bolox really!
        The only time I want to see flames from a car is because its running an offensive engine, not cause some idiot has put a gas bbq and spark plug up his pea shooter exhaust

          What a waste of time!! Why not do something that actually improves the car, in the case of the cars in the the vid I would suggest either burial or dumping at sea.

                        thought you said you had a spark plug fitted but it worked better without

                        It's good to see something like a high powered cosworth/s2/etc pop the odd flame but those chav's was OTT.

                        Think the best car i've ever seen pop a flame is a guy called james who had a modded cav 4x4 with a twin exit exhaust used to pop a flame then go down to a lovely blue flame towards the end.

                          Used to be popular with the old lead sleds but it's making a bit of an unwelcome comeback for show purposes ...I tend to agree with the people who say flames should only occur because of a manic engine setup.

                          It's not better than sex, but it runs it a close second.

                              I think that its good on something like a high power car but on those what look to be 1.6 ish cars is a waste and a danger with the parafin/propane or something that they are injecting into the exhaust to kick out the flames they are getting.

                              The owner who won the competition has said he's had most of the rear end melted due to flames

                              Oh and its now removed due to fitting a bigger and better system next year.
