Best for that was the Silk Cut Jaguars in the 80's, great racing against Porsche 956 if I have my numbers right.

Gimmick or scientific?

Sparks out the back cant be great.

Presumably just running fuel through the turbos like a turbine to keep the speed up.

Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.

Not sure anti lag is the source of the flames, as they are present under hard throttle.
I suspect the exhaust system is very short and free flowing, I think the flames are
Results of normal combustion, although I could be wrong.
