Default Pete's trailer in a ball....FIRE BALL THAT IS!!

Pete was on his way back to comp-spec after dropping off a few cars at a show today when he saw a little smoke behind him! He pulled over and found this!! Not sure why things like this happen to such good people!

Holy crap!



Doesn't look like any cars were in there.. what caught on fire? The trailer wiring?

Hope he was insured... that just sucks and Pete's such a good guy..


On the plus side.. there's some killer deals out there for slightly used trailers.

No cars were inside! Scott is correct! Pete thinks something hit a battery and that's how it started. It basically burnt out as it took 35 min for the fire depatment to show! He did make the news though!

Damn, that sucks Pete. I hope you didn't lose any tools or anything in there too. In this time of economic struggle, I hope it doesn't hurt your business too much.
