Holy fuck, ahaha! I cannot stop laughing. Some of the pics in this thread are just fucking genius!

This photo (not sure who the photog is, my apologies) shows another angle likely after the cloud of gas vapour went WHOOMPHHH! and the CW in the referenced photo getting the fuck out of Dodge. Judging by the wires dangling from his head, he's either a hardcore Rasta or was on Comm with a headset hence the mic on his face.

That being said, he coulda been both. :D

As I said, no one was seriously hurt. But I wouldn't doubt the vicinity smelled of burnt hair for a bit.

These guys *thought* they put the fire out, but wouldn't you know it, when you lift up a bike off the ground and onto it's wheels, the fuel is going to drain out onto the hot exhaust pipes. Voila, instant Satay. These guys ended up fine, just singed eyebrows. Those are sunglasses coming off his face. First mistake was coming in towards the machine and not smelling the race fuel . . . . because believe me, that stuff is potent! For all you CW's out there, keep up the good work and leave the burnt roaches to roast for a while after you've put out the flames. The inconnel pipes we're using run red hot, and they stay hot . . .
