SEDRO-WOOLLEY, Wash. (AP) - Two men who were  apparently trying to take an
unusual thrill ride were seriously injured in  an explosion at a shop that
builds and services race cars in Washington  state.

Fire Chief Dean Klinger told the Skagit Valley Herald the men  put about 
four
gallons of methanol in a 55-gallon barrel in the parking lot  Sunday night,
sat on top and lit it for a "barrel ride."

Klinger  says, "Apparently it was supposed to slide across the parking lot
like a  rocket. Instead, it blew up."

He says one end of the barrel flew 120  feet.

The men were responsive when paramedics arrived at Funk Racing.  They were
taken to a local hospital, then flown to Harborview Medical  Center in
Seattle with severe burns.
