It was easier telling him that rather than explaining to him that it appeared that way to him because (he’s old) it runs a rich fuel mixture and uses aggressive ignition timing and rev-matching, leading to small amounts of unburnt fuel igniting in the exhaust, especially during shifts or deceleration.
If I explained it that way which is why he thought that, his response would have still been “Your car was on fire just a few minutes ago young man.” 😂
