    Possibly. But I guess the mods are to blame here.

    upkors brader. Kung hindi mods yan eh di narecall na yan. Talagang ganyan pag ricer ka. Safety is the last thing to consider basta ba maporma. Tugs tugs tugs!

    According to the news report, witnesses claimed that the car was loaded with lights and the sound system was in full blast. Possibly he installed lots of electrical hogs in his system that his car's electricals couldn't take it and blew up. A sad casualty of show car culture prevalent in the scene these days.

    I hope he's insured.

    A reminder to occasionally inspect your non-factory installed wirings for damage, must be protected by a fuse of the correct rating and one that's installed as near to the battery as possible.

    Set-up or otherwise, when the fuel line bursts, it will be up in smoke, karaniwan sa ganyang sunog puro burst fuel lines ang dahilan, not that it's the cause, but that is one feasible angle we armchair investigators can speculate...
