As soon as they said that the drivers and crews would have ot clean up there messes, I bet the guy next ro me that it there would be some catastrophic failure in the first 5 pairs....

This is one of many videos to come, the last dyno run of the night. This is on E85 running 38psi with the AEM EMS V2 tuned by Shane @ DB Performance.
There are close up shots of the dyno charts in post #485

That video was from a few weeks ago, I did plan to drive the car to the event. My car fund is low, so I did not plan to dyno.
After the track I knew I had a radiator leek, and my oil level was 1/2 quart higher after my last run of the day. So I fixed the radiator leak only to find I was getting coolant in my oil. After a little run time I had a 1 quart of water in my oil. So I pulled spark plugs and found the #2 plug was wet and standing water in the cylinder.
So I bought a head gasket at MAP thinking it was that, we pulled the head off the car saturday night. Only to find the head gasket and cylinder head looked great. Then I looked in the #2 cylinder to find the problem.
The #2 cylinder wall has a 3-4" long vertical crack in it. So the block is junk. I will pull the motor out and do a full tear down this week. I might be able to have this running mid next season.

Damn, John. :( I'm glad it was caught early on and didn't cause some other catastrophic failure.
