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 emoji

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 emoji
