Never “firecrackered” any, my weapon of choice was to take a tube of glue and make tire tracks, then put some glue on the rear end. I’d throw a match on the tracks which would burn to the rear end then the whole car would go down in flames!
Another favorite was taking my dad’s hammer to my old Hot Wheels and Matchboxes, give them the ole car crusher look! Thinking back, there’s a small fortune of vintage Red Line parts in moms back yard!
