Fire is a phenomenon of the heat and light energy released during a chemical reaction, in particular a combustion reaction. Depending on the substances involved, and any impurities within, the color and intensity of the flames of fire will vary. It is one of the four classical elements in ancient Greek philosophy and science. This page is for quotes referring to fire in literal or metaphorical ways.
The Fire-Am of Herb Adams' VSE (Very Special Equipment) is one such tuner car that deserves recognition. It was born of an idea to run in the IROC (International Race of Champions) series or an SCCA celebrity series that never happened, depending upon the source-Herb said IROC in an '00 HPP interview. It was also a developmental project for Pontiac's WS6 suspension program, for which he was a consultant.
A former Pontiac special projects engineer, Herb was instrumental in the development of the Trans Am and SD-455 engine packages, among others. He also did plenty of racing, fielding cars, including in SCCA his wife's '64 Tempest- The Grey Ghost and a host of Firebirds; and even a '73 Grand Am in NASCAR. They were built by Herb with other engineers, such as Tom Nell, Jeff Young, among others, in their spare time sans factory backing. So it should come as no surprise that Herb continued on his own, creating F-body chassis upgrades to forward his racing efforts after leaving Pontiac in 1973.
