Default STM's Fastest stock block evo goes boom!

HERE IS THE UNEDITED VIDEO OF THE BLOW!
STM's Stock-Block Evo "RICER" Blows up! (unedited - Video
Let's all thanks Gleason for the great video coverage!


Well, first of all, looks like the miss-shift from 1-2 at 9000 rpm was the main problem. Wasn't the car's fault at all, and from the looks of the other cylinder's below, they were still in good shape.

Most importantly, it was only a 1-2 shift and not 3-4. Bad things could have happened at 100+mph with oil and coolant all over those Hoosiers. Emery is fine, the car is still mint (although the Zaklee clear cam gear cover took a beating as the balance shaft belt came right up through!)

I'm relieved it's all over. Alot of pressure off our shoulders! Although a 9.9 would have been awesome, I'll take a 10.0 and the 4 years of abuse and fun this car has given and taken!



This is the log from the blow.
