From experience, I would go with a rear wheel!!
Look, that nicely burnt off the oil on the rear wheel preventing a spin AND kept the rubber sticky.
[Only being flippant as it was just chequebooks that were injured in the making of the image.]
Interesting you can see the aero working.
IIRC that fire was actually a split CV boot throwing CV grease onto the exhaust?
yea I remember it being a cv boot too, I have some pic’s of “the” oil fire if someone can post them up.for me.
S.
There was also the Nitron black car at Brands in the MESC days,… That was an oil fire I think…got pics somewhere.
True, but it just shows what happens when flammable stuff hits the exhaust, which was the point I was trying to demonstrate.
I thought it was a split cv boot. But as a consequence the inner cv failed and made a bid for freedom.
Through the oil filter!
Either way, great picture!
