Neon Tube Spark Plug Wires

I was watching Bike Week on cable and saw, what I thought was pretty cool, a custom motorcycle that used neon tubes instead of spark plug wires. It looked pretty awesome seeing it 'light' every time the cylinder fired.

That would be kind of neat to see that on v-8 seeing when every single spark. There isn't a performance benifit, but a novalty to say the least.
