I have a beautiful black no stripe fully modified Heffner turbo with 3500 miles. Driving in a group yesterday with some friends and I have only owned the car for about a year and have only put a few hundred very easy miles on it. I decide to really get on it for a short period of time. My cell phone rings and Bluetooth connects and the guy behind me said I had flames shooting out of my exhaust!!!! whoa.....

Pics or it didn't happen! Kidding. Yeah, it's cool. Hit redline, close the throttle, spark shuts off an instant before fuel shuts off. A little fuel is dumped into a hot exhaust. Boom!
