    That sucks! Wonder what failed?
    "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." - Thomas Jefferson, 1776

          That's what happens when you do back to back to back pulls down the hwy with a blower car. Too much heat and it will eat a couple pistons..

              I dont think that's it. They test the GT500 on the Ring, where the back straight is several miles long at WOT. Sure it will heak soak and run hot, but stock tune it should at least pull lots of timing out.

              I think either the tune was off, or #8 overheated and let go.

                  Yea on a stock tune. Car let go In a big way though!! I have also seen some aggressive tuners set the minimum spark tables pretty high where it con only pull a few degrees.

                        I thought it was a head gasket from all the white smoke but once he slowed there were flames coming out of the pipes, wonder if that was oil not water?

                            That was A LOT of smoke...I'd say much more than just a head gasket, I'm going to say a hard busted cylinder....especially since it appeared he was starting up an oil fire there at the very end.

                            Either way...damn!

                              Looks like it may have kicked a rod.
