Lots of friction+heat+rubber = fire. Oh, and lets not have any fire extinguishers on hand, we'll just put out the fire with beer. :lol

How stupid.. But, a Fire Extinguisher, IIRC, won't put out a tire fire.. Only water or some other form of liquid.. I could be wrong..

Beer won't burn. Not enought alcohol.

If you're gonna show off, you gotta be prepared to be humiliated.

What the hell was the point of that, other than ruining perfectly good tires?

Plus I suspect there was more going on than a tire fire. I've seen tire fires. That looked like some sort of flammable liquid spilled on the ground. Maybe a gas line broke? The engine died at the same time it happened.

aww... I got my hopes all up to see the whole thing just sit there and go up in smoke right in front of them.

Yeah, I was kinda hoping for some good engulfing flames.

they usually put some kind of oil on the tires to help them smoke up...probably used the wrong kind.

Smoking tires is not a show of real power anyway. I've seen many slow cars that could smoke tires and I'm sure those ricers do things to make them smoke even easier.
