I used to be able to get my tuned Calibra Turbo to spit flames (frightened the shyt out of me the first time).

Do any of you LET boys get this?

I am sure mine will be giving the odd flame out, not had anyone follow me yet to know if it is, the amount of fuel going in it is bound to.
I used to get some spectacular flames when it had the 8 valve on twin 45 webbers, always had it in my mind that the back bumper would melt haha
Was racing a bike yesterday and he backed right off mabey because it was flaming lol then my boost piped popped off the turbo Sad he won haha
