I really did laugh and roll my eyes when I saw that part, among the other
huge inaccuracies in the movie.  Now people are running around yelling they
have NOS and not understanding that is a company name, Nitrous Oxide
Systems, instead of the chemical di-nitrous oxide.

Nope no flames, but if a piece of shrapnel hit the gas tank it could
have cause the car to go up in a big ball of fire.  I was just trying to
start a Bill/Jim style argument over your comment about the movie
explosion.  It would at least be semi-educational compared to the
discussions that have been going on...
