Did Demetrious's car catch fire???

I heard that Demetrious's race car caught on fire at a track event and burned to the ground. Is this true? Does anyone know the spacifics?

basicly it was repeated tightening where there was no use of a helicoil in tap cast aluminum cause the threads to give way causing alcohol to hose the bay down and catch fire...

Car is almost done. New paint scheme is gonna be sick. His best et was a 8.40@164mph. And the kinks wern't all worked out yet. Much more room for improvment next season.
