Dyno Fire?

Has anyone's engine bay ever caught fire during a drag race or dyno? Just wondering...

Never heard of any AMG catching on fire while on a dyno or drag.

Still looming around huh jtbest? I knew even though you "upgraded" to a ford GT500 you would still miss being here...Nice to see that you are still curious about the C63 even though you thought the grass was greener over on the other side...

I have seen pictures, but no first hand accounts.

What, in your opinion would catch fire?

I am definitely still lurking around here - great online community for a great car. I do have to admit that while the power jump from the 63 to the 500 is incredibly fun, the manual transmission (and some other detail items) make me miss the C63 terribly.
