how hot

ok so how hot does your exhaust have to be in order for it to ignite you know like when the big pulling tractors take off and theres that little flame from their stack well how hot is that cause me and my cuz where running my truck around HARD!!! and i had my head out the window on the right side(he was driving) and i noticed a pretty good little orange glow coming from inside the stack wan't shooting out but it was glowing red in there like the flame was further down the pyro read 850 i belive but idk how acurate it is anyways just wanting to know if any of the big pullers have noticed what temp that happens at

also remember this is a ways down the pipe since it runs up along the bed its not like its coming through the hood from the turbo(which this truck does not have)
