Exclamation 2018 A-Spec Spits Monster Flames (Rice Burner)

All,

There was an old thread I made about spitting flames for a video for a new A-Spec and thought I'd share what I am allowed to share without giving away what this is actually used for.
I wasn't aware that my iPhone had this built-in iMovie app so while I was sitting on the bowl I literally made this movie clip in 8 minutes flat just for giggles.

This car is 100% stock and this kit is self-contained and fits in that tiny storage pocket in the bottom of the trunk and is powered off the cigar outlet with a plug so there is no cutting of any of the cars wires and can be removed in minutes with no evidence.
I'm eager to hear the feedback, wisecracks and maybe interest in doing it for those car show guys that don't want to alter the car to do this safely. I myself I already thought of so many jokes about this but it had a purpose for a film shoot.

Here is the link to the monster flame shooting "Rice Burner":

The flames are like a Dragons 🐉 Tail when vehicle is in motion and they are very long and this is the lowest setting when stopped so the bumper don’t melt.

I feel like you would want to install an automatic fire suppression system with something like this...

if playing with it everytime you want to show someone, probably not good for the paint or plastics...

I don't get it.

This just seems like a good way to burn your car down, and then have the insurance company laugh in your face while you are stuck with no car.

Not gonna lie, I'm enjoying the entertainment value of this

But folks here are right... those flames will likely cause irreversible paint/plastic damage (if they haven't already)... those flames at least appear to be adjacent to the body of the car.

You could always extend the exhaust tips out.. would look silly... but would protect the car better.

Either way... Hot Wheels!

So, something along the lines of the flames in the 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 seem to be better implemented:

UPDATE: This project has been completed and now the kit used is for sale for anyone that might want this for their car show car, car meet, sideshow, or even tailgater fun.
I had to add a second solenoid wit ha oxygen tank to spray with the propane as the stock catalyst snuffed out the flame when the car was running, otherwise, it worked well when the car was off and never melted anything.
Kit comes with all needed parts and instructions on how to make it work right the first time. I may toss this on my drift trike if no one wants it for some fun rising around my side streets in my hood.

that would be a far more entertaining video than the one above... Throw it on the drift trike and create awesome content. Please and Thank you.

To be completely honest, this'd be much more interesting coming from a hypercar. But to each, his own....and it is certainly entertaining to watch.
