Pretty nasty, wonder what happened. I listened for a while, but all I got was that the uberferschmatzen gerfloped das fluglemenker.
Tractor must have been pretty stout -- didn't really look like anything else was damaged.

me and my brother in law decided a while back that blowing the engine is ok as long as you get to watch the hood ripple when it goes. i guess he took it a step further...

The same team runs another tractor called Maximum Risk- Apparently with a 10liter inline six running on methanol and pushed by THREE turbos in two stages.

I was looking for his boost pressure. Didn't find it, but the site sells boost guages that go to 60 bar, which is over 800 psi.... Seems like the block should be able to hold that.
