LOZER DSM goes boom!

I'm still baffled as to how this happened. The damage is so extreme it had to have been abused in some way prior to this incident which started the cracks. Watch the first link then the aftermath link. Amazing.

Very explody.

Remember, kids: Boost can be dangerous.

Never seen a piston look like a dropped china saucer before. I've also never seen a block blow in big chunks like that. Intense pressure, and presumably predetonation, will do that to you though.

Hey, at least the tranny held up when he "launched the f**k out of it."

I liked the "dude that was your engine?" and "my parents are going to be pissed!"

the soft chirping of the birds in "the aftermath" kind of makes you think the engine is now in a better place.
