I liked the original show before they all started building tube chassis big dollar "street" cars. Took all the fun out of it. Then all these spin offs started and I walked away. Ruined a really good car show. Shame. I wish the best to those guys that lost stuff in fires, wouldn't wish that on anyone.

What is it that is making all these race car trailers catch fire?

The way they are wired I don't think can cause it?

Static electricity and race gas fuel vapors?

I guess it would nice to know so other people don't suffer the same fate.

Moat trailer fires are caused by golf cart batteries followed closely by batteries for the trailer, to operate winch, lites, elec jacks. Most are not secured properly.

also could be brake related. Hate to see anyone lose their cars like that. I’m sure he probably has enough from the show to replace it all.

They said it was a smoker, sad.

Don't want to see that happen to anyone....

He seems like a decent guy even though he show boats for the cameras...

where is the truck towing the trailer, not in the video either??

If he was smart it he disconnected the trailer and saved the truck.

Unless the truck was a lemon. Lol

I quit watching that show when the network decided that focusing on someone as stupid as JJ DaBoss was a good idea. I don't find stupidity entertaining.

Update,

I saw a video on YouTube from JJ himself today. IF you would like to see the video I am talking about go to YouTube and punch in "The Real Street Racers", OR "JJ Da Boss What Happened" in the search bar. From what JJ said his wife noticed the fire so he pulled over and got everyone out of the truck, unhooked the truck from the trailer and then moved the truck out of the way, nobody was hurt. Ole Heavy was not lost in the fire, it was a truck LIKE Ole Heavy that he built and Ziptie was not lost in the fire either it was actually a car he ended up buying. So all is well
