    You could always bend over and hold a lighter back there. I think thats still legal. Might singe some hair though. LOL!!!

    Huh. Interesting. I've heard of propane setups, but that seems like a (relatively) safer and more logical way, albeit by sacrificing your air-to-fuel ratio.

    I believe the only person who is allowed to have flames coming out the back of his car is Batman.

    There are a few "bling bling" honda guys around my area that have the flame setup. One of these dim bulbs lit his off in traffic and burnt the paint off of his buddies bumper. It was funny. The fight that ensued was even funnier!

    I think you're right; it must be something for "off-road" use only, considering those kits work off of a separate fuel supply. If you do any changes to the fuel system, such as relocating the tank, there is a good chance that it will change the crash dynamics of the car. I'm sure it would be fine, considering that there are a lot of people who use fuel cells for muscle cars, but I would check with your local laws first.

    haha, anyone ever see the jet cars/ trucks/ bikes? they took turbines out of heli's that were over hours and put em in cars. I think leno had one, and he was talking about doing just that....

    I especially like the warrior on the motorcycle.

    This would definitely be cool on a Festiva.

    Quite the contrary! I believe they would indeed think it is cool because they would then find all kinds of charges for tickets to whomever has it. LOL

    It was pretty cool to watch!
    Mine used to throw blue flames in between shift when I would lay down the hammer!

    My friend has alcohol injection on his and shoots purple flames, it is sick nasty!
