Message	or risk ending up like this poor Z06: His *dealer* installed an upgraded exhaust and on the way home thursday, the vette caught fire on the freeway! Full story, from the guy who pulled over to help and took the pics: La-Z-Link I don't know how poorly-fitting your exhaust has to be to catch your car on fire, but I sure feel bad for this guy. I can't think of anything particularly flammable under our Z's (besides the tires) - I wonder if the vette has plastic aero panels underneath? Or if the exhaust is close to the tires? nissan.schuss.net
