Yeah, no - the R creates a bit of a vacuum effect at the back and just sucked those buggers in - didn't even burn it as much as melted and deformed it, a little...

What do you mean vacuum effect? The scavenge pulse? Ive never heard of an exhaust sucking something in, unless the valves had a problem.
At the back of the car, at speed, there is a 'void' or 'vacuum' of air as the car moves - this causes odd things to get thrown up on the rear glass, and, a huge fireball like effect, especially with a tail wind.
It is impressive, and scared the crap out of me the first time I noticed it happened when I looked in the rear view. Over the course of a few months, it buggered up the rear valance. I'll take a pic of it if I have some time today.

Oh, that. Thought you meant something went into the out hole.
Due to the extensive engine build and headwork, if I run the side dump it sounds like a 90s F1 car at 9500rpm. With the 'small' silencer on it, it sounds like a motorcycle with 4 wheels.
