I don't know what was wrong with this guy. He was staring (I think he was on some kind of drugs) and just revving his poor motor non stop I mean it must of been a good 2 minutes of him revving his sh!tbox to redline.

Green light, he smashes the gas again and KABOOM! Middle of intersection puking its guts out underneath.

The world is full of stupid people, keep your head on a swivel.

This post made my morning

But what interests me is why the motor actually exploded? Do these things happen only due to revving, or do we suspect he absolutely cooked his oil which then failed and caused other issues, or could it be something else?

Good Tuesday Morning All. Looks to be another repeat as yesterday. 104* for a high with NO rain.

Have a good one guys. Stay Safe, Stay Positive and Try to Stay Cool Out There.

A good solid 2 minutes of redline revving is going to heat the oil up exponentially. Then you put it under load (with little lubrication due to it being cooked) and well, kaboom! Plus its like 110degrees here in Florida. His temps must have been higher than he was.

Pretty sure dude was meth'd out of his mind, it's Florida after all.
