Mustang/Bicycle kill

[Tom Tom Turbo]

A fellow board member and I swapped cars for the week while he recharged my AC system for an ASE Certification class. Mine is fairly stock compared to his (TE63, 3400 converter, alky.......) His car ran 12.2X at the nats and is probably capable of 11.80s I was drving around my college campus when a yellow fox body pulls up and starts throwing revs. I let the thing spool and then he nodded his head. As the light changes I roll into it and the boost gauge jumps to 22-23# and the alky is flowing like wine, in 2 blocks I put 5-6 cars on him and then shut it down

I threw one last rev at him as he coasted by, and I guess some unburned alky/fuel ignited and shot a huge flame out the dump pipe. A guy on a bicycle going down the sidewalk was in awe I guess, as he drove off the sidewalk and creamed a fire hydrant I hope the hydrant is okay...

Would that be considered alcohol abuse???
