Fire burnouts were done purely for show. They were no better at warming the tyres than a normal water burnout but were great to watch after dark. An inflammable liquid was used which was either ignited by a match or by the flames from the headers
I've always been intrigued by the 'fire burnout.' What was the purpose?
