Insane Flames!

Insane Flames!
This video from Mix939 is on fire. Literally!

Better be careful not to piss off the driver of this car or you're likely to get your front end melted clean off! This car has more pyrotechnics going on than a July 4th fireworks display and flame throwing abilities to make Rambo jealous.

We're not sure what's going on in the combustion department, but we want to! Those are some completely insane flames!

1200hp Dahlback VW

1200hp Dahlback VW
CarMovies has been out at the track again and has brought us something hot. Literally!

This is the Dahlback Racing VW that's boasting 1200hp under the hood, plus some serious spoilers and body kits.

Oh, and one of it's modifications appears to be a built-in flame thrower, or at least that's what it looks like to us as it whizzes by, bellowing first smoke and then fiery, red flames. Is this a new strategy to intimidate the competition, perhaps?

For more flames, see what happens when a Chevy Vortex Max burns enough rubber to make fire!

Worst Nitrous Explosion!

Worst Nitrous Explosion!

Thanks to jthompson for this fiery vid.

Generally speaking, if you're running on nitrous, you want the flames to be shooting out of the back of your vehicle as you rapidly disappear down the strip.

Unfortunately for this dragster, things get very hot, very quickly in the engine compartment and despite every fire extinguisher within reach being pointed in its direction, the flames just keep getting bigger.

A few explosions cause the crowd to scream and make everyone realize this fire just has to burn itself out. Not exactly the smoking-hot action everyone anticipated but a cool video (except for the car's owner) nonetheless.

For a more successful drag run, check out this Camaro with blower & nitrous video.

Time to Slow it Down a Bit

View VideoBrought to you by REDVR4.

In a world of fast cars I find it relaxing to slow things down every once in a while. While lurking around the site I came across this in 1951 Buick that just hit the spot. It's a classic GM product with great lines. I think that the flame throwers are a great compliment to the white wall tires.

View the 1951 Buick video.
