I posted this in the pits too, but a lot of people don't ge there.
Not a pretty sight, all I know is this happened at Great Lakes Dragaway like a week ago, it's a 2g n/t auto running nitrous (not sure of the shot)and this is the video :(

dam that blows.....hmmmm I think I am going to hold off on nos and look more to turbo now....hehe

Did the guy really have to punch the camera man though?
That wasn't very nice.

Though I've never been in the situation where my engine has blown, so I guess I wouldn't know what it felt like.

I'm just glad it was a head gasket and not a thrown rod or something to that extent. I think he was running a 100 shot on stock fuel system from what the guys on my list were talking about. Who knows :(

100 shot on a stock fuel system, no wonder he blew the head gasket. And your right he is lucky the nos didnt ingnite below his rings and throw the rod the wrong direction. :)

Damn its just a head gasket, Homie didnt have to slug the camara man.......shouldnt be running any thing over 60 shot on stock internals and fuel system anyway........I saw a guy run 14.9 with a 40 shot not bad......and he can still drive home
