waz Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Well my savage nearly died today, really ruffled my feathers! Just done a load of mods to it, rebuilt it, cleaned it, got everythign sorted, added 100quids worth of servo's, and what does it decide to do? It burst's into flames! In my hatse to get started up, I didn't put the brake on properly, linkage slipped off. as I gathered some speed the brakes jammed themselfs on, whilst I was still going WOT, others noticed, I didn't, but sparks where deffo flying everywhere! Unburnt fuel and oil from the exaust litup, and burst into a fireball! Let off the throttle, car rolled to a halt and put itself out. I cut the engine to find no damage Really did [CENSORED] me up though! Wonder If I was the first one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
