This Is One Of Those 'I Wish I Had Been There', Posts,

Santa Pod in the UK was where this picture was taken,


Nick Davies, 48, was performing a 'flaming burnout' in front of hundreds of adoring petrolheads at the Santa Pod raceway in Northamptonshire, officials poured petrol on and around its tyres before setting the liquid alight, he then hit the gas causing the 1,700bhp speed machine to spin its rear wheels and the vapour to burn uncontrollably, he was at the quarter-mile in less than seven seconds at 205mph, the incredible pictures were taken by motoring photographer Matt Woods who captured the split second the flames engulfed the dragster, like I said before, I wish I had been there.
