Fried Rice? LOL

Post by Executioner »

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.

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.

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.
