They did know has nothing to do with it here . when it's completely engulfed and fuel is all over everything it's got to burn out sometimes.. what's real scary is if you ever seen an electric car fire it's a lot scarier than that and nobody's equipped to handle that and the typical situation it presents.. I've seen fire departments struggle to put out an RC car battery for 10 min... Come to find out a little bit of salt water would have put it out ..
@@steveletson6616 Agreed. The dude with the hose hitting it from the front underneath made it worse. I hope he's not on a interior attack team. Fire suppression definitely looked poor for a trained eye on this one.
Powder is not very good for fighting a fuel fire that is "mobile". Powder works by covering the fuel and snuffing the oxygen supply. If the fuel is moving or flowing, then the powder layer gets disturbed and the fire relights. Foam is the best method for this kind of fire, but it needs to be applied correctly. If they had covered the fire underneath the engine first they may have got it out quicker.
I love Cleetus but how the hell does he not have a fire truck literally at the ready. Hell he even has his own truck. That’s extra shitty preparation right there.
@chatta6013 I think the outside professionals were the ones in orange. Definitely didn't look like it though. I remember the previous events having what looked like a different crew. They seemed like they knew what to do.
Man idk if I could go to a Cleetus event knowing all the fans are imitating sirens and saying “ur done!” 🤣 it’s funny in the videos but I don’t wanna hangout with hundreds of Cleetus wannabes
The extinguishers are high volume. For foam to be effective, even in lower percentages of foam to water like a lot of FD s are doing with dwellings, you need volume .. Pump.truck, decent foam nozzle.. That little.hose and nozzle on an extinguisher isnt effective against that much fire...
What happened to the guys that were out there the last couple of times they have had these events? I saw the trucks there today but they weren't on the track this time. They were Johnny on the spot within seconds and had the fires out before anything got that bad. Those crews had their stuff together. These guys in the orange look like they have no idea whats going on and there were only 2 of them. Not to mention they couldn't even get their equipment started. I'd go back to the other safety crew if I was Cleet.
This is an amazing example of the incompetence of the event staff and fire crews. Nice job! In Australia you people wouldve been boo'd and people wouldve started walking out. Complete garbage. Just a waste.
The teams in the past events have been way better. Look at older videos from their events. They were on every corner and in full fire gear. This looks like a different company with very minimal training or equipment. Don't know if Cleet tried to cut costs or what happened.
Here is a video from a past event showing the staff I was talking about. They have M.C.S.A.R on their fire gear. You can't look at any angle throughout the event and not see one of them in full gear right by the wall. At the end around the 24 minute mark when JH's truck catches on fire, they are right there and kept it in check. You can also see the guys in orange slowly walking up after like 8 of the M.C.S.A.R people are already there. Looks like Cleet needs to go back to having them out...... ua-cam.com/video/PW8ptOI3ims/v-deo.htmlsi=uvEcC68YQRGAHprJ
I wonder why there wasnt an actual fire truck there before, does he still own that big green one? Kind of silly not to have a huge one there just encase things get froggy.
Right ?!? they need to invest in some foam and foam nozzle as well .. And get trained properly on how to use it, and what not to.do after the fire is out
@@chatta6013 I actually misunderstood what the original comment said, so mine (while true) is irrelevant. Now I understand that he meant "there before" as "close to the scene standing by" not "somewhere at the venue at past events." Relax, man.
@TKing2724 maybe I misunderstood original also lol. But he does use outside fire team n safety team etc. It's been touched on b4, so things like this although his team does try 2 help is ultimately on the 3rd party.
@@nitro2199 it seems they aren't that professional if they show up as its being put out. They are just as capable of using his truck as they are theirs. The truck is not obsolete for a track, just residential municipal use by cities and towns. It's too old for that, It works great for putting out cars on fire at a race track.
@@nitro2199Those weren't professionals, not even close. A bunch of idiots except the one guy who easily put it out with the correct type of extinguisher.
The FF boys really have a long way to go on safety and response at these events.
They do, but at the same time, fire extinguishers are only gonna do so much
Love how the fire truck shows up at the same time they finally get the fire out.
Right
FF: you mean I could have finished my sandwich?... Crap
Yes that took a little too long I know fires are unpredictable, but glad it wasn’t nobody in an accident trapped in the car
Temu fire extinguishers apparently doesn’t work very well! 😂
Well, a little learning experience... Track fire team needs to get some foam
Track fire team had foam. They just took forever to get there and then couldn't get their stuff working properly it looks like.
Man that sucks. Gotta know what’s burning and what extinguishers to properly use.

Foam was hopelessly ineffective. Powder for the win!

Thats one heck of a burnout. Can't believe the fire truck that he owns wasn't already staged near.
Dude owns a fire truck .!!!!

what do you expect at a burnout contest in florida
There's outside professionals at every event who make the calls on this type stuff.
@chatta6013 I think the outside professionals were the ones in orange. Definitely didn't look like it though. I remember the previous events having what looked like a different crew. They seemed like they knew what to do.
I'm going to be the askhole and call it "done for views / entertainment ". They even own a firetruck.... gtfo
@@miked471yeah and they couldn't get the pump on the truck started until the fire had completely engulfed the blazer
Them older powder extinguishers never disappoint lol. Unless it’s a Tesla fire then you’re in for some trouble lmao
That's one blazing blazer
Giving new meaning to hot box (what we call V8 S10 blazers) 😮
I always called a hot box a vehicle that was still being driven around after been reported stolen a week prior
@@Brian23xxx a hot box is when you close the windows, turn off the vents and smoke weed until you cant see.
Thanks camera man 👍
Man idk if I could go to a Cleetus event knowing all the fans are imitating sirens and saying “ur done!” 🤣 it’s funny in the videos but I don’t wanna hangout with hundreds of Cleetus wannabes
Drunk spectators.
Blazing blazer
wonder why the foam guys weren't able to put it out but the co2 extinguisher instantly put it out?
The extinguishers are high volume. For foam to be effective, even in lower percentages of foam to water like a lot of FD s are doing with dwellings, you need volume .. Pump.truck, decent foam nozzle.. That little.hose and nozzle on an extinguisher isnt effective against that much fire...
Looks like he didn't turn his fuel pump off and emptied it
The co2 displaces the oxygen needed to burn.
Engine bay fire suppression system would have better saved it, however It wouldn't be quite as much fun?
safety third
The firetruck showed up just in time to watch the truck get put out!
Rocky is now toasted
This was Not rocky
Wow

he needs people properly informed at least on what type of fire extinguisher goes with what type of fire
Please cover drag racing following Cleetus and Cars. Thank you.

I know how it feels 😢
Is that the spectator drag winner Blazer?
Good question.
I think so
No, totally unrelated. both great Blazers, but not in the same.
Not the controversial Blazer driver in many spectator drags. That guy's an absolute douche.
Everyone could have peed on it n put it out faster
Cleaters crew got the fire out just fine
I wonder why there wasnt an actual fire truck there before, does he still own that big green one? Kind of silly not to have a huge one there just encase things get froggy.

They have to have real fire personnel and EMS for insurance purposes.

damn the fire extinguishers are barely touching it! What kind of fuel was it on?
Looks like a busted fuel line.
As a fireman over here in Australia ,let me say this is a total shitshow ,driver should be seeking compensation for pure negligence ,damm fools
Was hard to watch. Definitely a bunch of idiots there.
nah if your truck catches on fire, its your own damn fault.

The crowd is close to the fence line and why did it take a half an hour to get the firetruck there?
Doesn't he own a fire truuck??
How does cleet have a pumper truck and doesn't have it full and using it?
@@cbcalhoun and? Leave it ready and fueled for the fire squad.
Probably needs to have professionals doing it for insurance reasons.
