I have a friend whose personal golf cart burned to the ground on the 15th fairway of our old golf club during the round.

Am sooo glad you're ok. Looks like a fuel line leak.

Engine EXPLODED while driving it. A wall of flame behind me, sent parts into the car I had just passed. Young girl with me jumped over the front and slid down the windshield as her door was too hot to open. I was slightly singed and surprised at my good humor. Took about four days to start to get angry about how badly it could have turned out. We were safe and that is what mattered.
