Presses the ignition button again. Bigger fire. Lets go of the of the ignition button. Presses the ignition button again. Bonus point for working with electricity and flammable materials without a ABC extinguisher near by.

I was/am building a Mazda miata drift car powered by a small block Chevy 350. I was super excited to start it.... I could not start with exhaust manifolds because they would not fit. I have to make my own.... But aside from that, I mounted in the car, via modified subframe and hooked a hoist on the rear to keep the engine level.... I hooked up all the fuel lines and gave it a go.... Resulted in a horrendous fire where I got 1st and 2nd degree burns all over my left arm and leg...the reason for the fire is ignition timing was off and fuel pressure at the regulator was too high.... I killed fuel and spark and I kept turning the engine over so it would suck the fire back into the engine therefore extinguishing the fire but that didn't work and I did not have a fire extinguisher so I grabbed the hose....I do not have insurance with my employer so that is why I am creating this.... to help me pay the burn clinic to treat me for my misfortune and for the time I am missing at my job to make money so I can live.Any donations are more than welcome and much appreciated. Thank you."

If he gets enough views on Youtube, he can advertise on his Youtube channel, and then pay for his medical care. He just needs to make more skin melting videos that get on the front page of Jalopnik. He's going to be living the American dream, letting the free market decide if he gets medical treatment.

Sbastien Loeb's Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak is a monster, everyone knows that. Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYPy4yjDFAw Here's a longer one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S46ers1u_W4 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 1.8 seconds. 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 4.8 seconds. 0 to 240 km/h (149 mph) in 7 seconds. Twin turbo 3.2L V6 with 875HP for 875KG. It's going to be massive. KozmoNaut fucked around with this message at 07:02 on May 3, 2013 |

I would not be surprised if that gets to the top in under 9 minutes. Hopefully it won't be a clusterfuck like last year.

Here's the fastest piston engined land vehicle in the world. Back in the day guys like Mickey Thompson went almost this fast with 4 supercharged engines. The crew of the Speed Demon did it with one 300 cubic inch turbo mill. Technology!

The best part of this episode is realizing that apparently Freiburger daily drives a 1500 horsepower project Camaro. Although Finnegan's weird open-air junkyard of project cars is also amazing.
