At least the kid has learned:

Well first off, I will have a fire extinguisher or 2 nearby.
Second off I'm going to pull the car outside and put it in the street.
Third, i will make sure the gas tank is in the back of the car
Fourth, I'll have exhaust manifolds on it so it won't be shooting flames.
Not so sure about the second item, but 1, 3 and 4 are all fantastic ideas. Also, maybe not use an open plastic gas can and a garden hose to feed the carb.
