Default Has Your car ever shot flames?

Ive seen just about every car shoot flames either on YouTube or somewhere else, from high performance supercars to old jdm cars. Even some everyday cars, but never a crossfire. I'm just curious has anyone ever done it and how? and I'm not talking about flame thrower kits, that's a cop-out

That is usually the result of a turbo'ed car on throttle lift.

20. Yep.

Flames from the windows is eye catching, but a bit too risky.

Guess I'm getting old too....

I must admit it is pretty cool seeing some sparks fly out the of a ricers exhaust. Gotta love those Subaru's with the those massive spoilers (can't believe people have the nerve to say anything about srt's wing after seeing one of those). However, the srt is not a ricer. It is common on turbo'd cars. There are quite a few turbo engines in mercedes now, I bet you won't be shooting flames, cause its a mercedes.

I guess with some mods it's possible on a c63 lol
