to go into more detail. i dropped the can on the sidewalk and it landed on the nozzle witch stuck open. i picked it up and some vapr got in the flame. i couldn't stop the flaming can so i took it to the hose and extinguish it. we let it drain and threw the evidence away.

@22 yrs old I had a moment of terrible judgement.
Driving home from a social event, after installing the NOS system a week or so before, (in '86), to a turbocharged, intercooled motor, I decided that the police and I needed to race/drive crazy that night. Bad Idea.
They wrote a ticket for four serious counts and only a great (high dollar) atty. saved me. I retained permision to drive, barely.
Shut it off and save your license...
