Since this has been showing several fuel alters, I was going to put up the pics of Tom Ferraro in there altered, normal run, on fire run , and then all four off ground in my Pinto---
didn't remember how to do it , but the pics are in my gallery if any one wants to see them or post them for me------and yes, the fire did burn off some of his fingers, a common problem with the firesuit/gloves back then----
Here they are Jerry.
