Yup at the drag strip on Sunday. Oiled down the drag strip, sides of car and back of car. Everyone at the strip was pissed at me. LOL. I should of known better and pulled over right away when I heard something under me. I was just thinking my exhaust came of my DP because that happened before but nope. I've been looking for a used longblock because I'm not going to do a built block replacement and have them tear down the motor to see what is salvageable. Don't have the funds for that. I looked at my 2 race logs pryer to it blowing and didn't see anything out of the ordinary other then the car trapping less then usual. I guess it was just on its way out. Car is pretty tame compared to other setups. It boosting 28-29 at 17 degrees timing on e65. I'll probably get it detuned 27-28 and timing to like 14 degrees or something but still a crap shoot if the replacement motor will last if pushed.
Damn man. This one hurts. Hope you get back up and running soon. Until then i see a nice used kia in your future to drive around.

Thanks bud. I'm just going with a used motor so it shouldn't take long to be up and running again once I get a replacement motor.

Alrighty, the moment you all have been waiting for. Fuel was at E78, 34.5 psi with 15.5 degrees of timing. Here's a video of the 528 whp pull:

Condolences.

They're all on borrowed time at that level.
