GTA V: 13 Things You Probably Didn't Know You Could Do

4. Gas Trail Antics

There are a couple of ways to take advantage of the in-game ability to leave gas trails using a billy can in GTA V. The first determines that shooting a car's gas tank will leave a leaking trail of gas as the wounded car attempts to flee, which handily for sadists and arsonists, can be ignited. Naturally, getting into the car after you shoot a whole in the gas tank is probably not the best idea you'll ever have, especially given the second related point. As well as setting fire to your gas trails the old fashioned manual way, you can turn a car with a heavy-duty enough engine into a giant disposable lighter It is possible to use the backfire of your engine - preferably a sports car with a growl and enough gusto to make some sparks fly - to ignite a trail of gas to blow up intended victims, or just generally create lots of Michael Bay style carnage. It's definitely not advisable to do this if you've left the gas trail from your own engine tank, as that's a quick way to finding yourself exploded or on fire, and that's generally not very good for the health of the characters.
