It took a little longer than I expected fe these pics to get out. It was a surreal experience sitting and watching. My stomach still hurts knowing all the hard work these companies and Chris have put into this build. Like Tizz said, everyone there tried to put out the flames for quite sometime before we lost the fight. Once the flames got inside the cabin and black smoke started pouring out there was nothing left to do.

All I can say is I'm glad it happened when and where it did. The driver couldn't see the flames and was about to start driving away. The driver and passenger were able to exit the truck. If this would have happened on a beach in Cabo while Chris was in the truck with no one around to yell "fire" we could be talking about someone's life being lost.

What failed / caused the fire? Too bad these things don't have a black box...

I'm no expert but what I witnessed was exactly what I have heard of other trucks with similar engine modifications.
