In the myth with the burning car tire, that takes fire from the friction of the asphalt, you should tried different surfaces from rough to soft and different tires, from flat to off road tire. These things may make the tire,to burn. Please try! thank you Big Grin

Good point, but they did try adding lots of other stuff to the mix such as petrol and sparks yet still no fire. Apshalt is also pretty good at retaining heat so I would've thought it one of the best surfaces to test.

Anyway, might be worth revisiting this on various surfaces like you suggest.

I would also like to see them trying different types of tyres.
