Since my race track level is in a giant foundry that works with an alien metal, my barrel contains the slag waste product that comes off this metal after refining it. It would not make sense to have a barrel with actual explosive material in an environment that contains so much fire and molten material, however the volatile slag in the barrels is extremely active and creates pressure inside. There is a depressurizing mechanism in the barrel but when a car hit is, it will become damages and the pressure will freely build up until the entire thing explodes.
Since it is a alien material, the slag could look like something unfamiliar. So I think some sort of glowing sludge would be interesting and I would like to make it look unstable (maybe radioactive).
