Hey, just got back from the event, we left early due to the nitrous backfire that occured. It was a really bad fire, they had to call the local fire department to finnaly get the car out, and the car was acctully stuck to the track. Feel really sorry for the persons car it was, they just got it finished and this was thier first time taking it.

Sorry for the shitty pictures, Ill get the real pictures soon.

It happened pretty much right in front of me... It was a 94 Talon. I believe AWD. Looked like a fuel line let go, didn't look like any of the nitrous backfires I've seen before (unless a nitrous backfire blew a fuel fitting off?).
 
Ive just learned that it wasent a nitrous backfire..Fuel line or sumthing.. :nono:
 
It was too big the first time. No need to post it again.

Just wondering, but where did you get that pic from? I was right behind him waiting to stage when that happened last Saturday. I've got a bunch of pics of it if anyone wants to see and a video if anyone has a place to upload it.
