Someone was red-lining the engine, and it exploded.

Excellent as always Scott! 💜

Wow

[@Rocket39Smoke14]

I believe the Fire Department has learned to let vehicle fires burn after they lost a fellow fire fighter a few weeks back.

[@deenasmusicbox]

Awesome job Scott!

[@mexicanspec]

Is that an electric car if not what were those flashes from the interior?

[@bobsmithinson2050]

Magnesium in the steering column. When hit with the cooler water, a chemical reaction occurs. This is common in most cars, and firefighters are trained for it because sometimes it explodes with sparks

How are these cars catching on fire?
Bouncing off the rev limiters, oil/fuel leaks, and clogged cat converters.

[@rshrsh5420]

Is there any more back story to this other than a street take over led to a shooting? And who set the car on fire?

[@bobsmithinson2050]

Edgar.

You could have just put it as 5:50 to give people a time stamp. What a failure.

They took over a public intersection to do donuts. How’s it not a takeover?
