Never mind the burn out truck, What the heck is the guy doing flapping the hood on the car behind it??

I suppose if he flaps it rapidly enough, perhaps he could take off....

I saw that too.
Actually looked like something was either burning or glowing with a flicker.

I seen the glowing as well. Looked like it was either on fire or darn near. I thought I saw a flicker like a flame comming from under the hood.

things get hot-red on diesels! (turbo)

my cuz worked with the tractor on the field, when my bro went there, and he said it looked like a light under the hood... twas a red turbo.

then my friend used to test wells, and the big turbo on the big cat engine, was glowing red, while under load.

he actually said it looked transparent.

has anyone ever popped the hood after a hard pull in theyre Cummins at night??
