Long story short:
The background: There's a huge car show in Worcester, Ma every year called the "Worcester Nationals". They have a burnout contest. They have a group of guys who look like they were let out of the local jail run the thing.
The car: You may recognize the red Mustang as the car that was featured in HRM a while back with the stock Mercury Mountaineer motor and twin John Deere turbos. It's ratty as hell, but I've personally seen the thing go 10's. He's a crowd favorite at this deal because he completely abuses that car. You can tell by the way the motor smokes, the rings are shot to hell.
The payoff: He pulls up to do his burnout and one of the lackeys spots something leaking from the car. You can see the guy shoot at it with the hose. They tell the kid it's coolant. He shrugs it off and figures the motor will go out in a blaze of glory (he's got a new bullet for it). It was fuel. The car bursts into flames BIG time. Amazingly, he cobbled this thing back together enough to drive it home the next day!
Here's the video. If you are watching at work be careful as there is audible swearing!
