    i know i wouldn't have just sat there and filmed it. I'd be throwing dirt on it, running around looking for water, looking for whatever i could to put that out! Damn, another GTi bits the dust..

    it wasn't an R32 and from what i've read he had just installed a bigger turbo and the oil return line leaked onto the turbo causing it to catch fire...and yea i dont understand why he was using the fire hydrant in the cabin instead of shooting it by the turbo where the actual fire was at

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!

    That has got to be one of the dumbest things I've seen in awhile. Looks like they had plenty of time to get that fire out. While it was still small they should have used that fire extinguisher and put it out.

    Damn that would so suck... the fire one.. I feel like I could almost relate to the guy, that'd suck... and I dont have a fire extinguisher heh so I'd probably be stuck in the same situation.
