Exactly. I showed a motor engineer the video and he described what happened.

The block broke just below the chambers, the head was still attached. He said that tractor racers pull 2-3K HP out of a block intended for 500. Usually they use reinforcement bolts that go through the head into the lower block that prevent the head from blowing off - hard to see if those bolts exist in the video.
The crank bolts couldnt hold the engine to the crank and not the head. You can see the crank still attached to the tranny.

I bet the driver blew his top.

Wow, quite a bit of force there. The stacks became scuds.

Looks like all the pistons are gone...thats pretty dangerous if they did fly out of the block.

Someone forgot to torque the bolts.

Anyone know what happened? And please, just a suggestion, if you are going to talk out of your ass, change the font color to white.
