Default And so it ENDS.. The last day of (Snow White) my EJ1 civic.. |Khris H.|

Had a great day at the dragstrip in Montgomery today for Import Face-Off.. Got several runs in and even ran my bet time ive ever run with my new setup 14.6 @ 95mph.. Too bad my day didnt end on such a high note..

On the way home from the track about 50miles away from my destination my car was low on gas so i got off the next exit and fulled my tank up.. Then i got back on the highway and not even three minutes into my drive my brother and I smell gas really strong, so we start wondering where the hell the smell was coming from.. Obviously thinking it couldnt be my car we dismissed it but the smell was strong.. Two seconds later my brother YELLS "the car is on FIRE", im like WTF so he says again, "the car is on FIRE".. I then throw on my turn signal and flew onto the shoulder of the highway and stop the car and cut the engine off.. my brother dives out the car and i dive out the passenger side right behind him to see this..

The rest is history..

Damn shame bro. Car looked immaculate.

You aren't going to attempt to salvage it?

I used to have the lip until my car got stolen. I miss it.

Also, how did you like that intake? I want one.
