I have video of my dyno pulls of the first day.

The fact is that any car is prone to breaking down. The blue lancer guy even admitted to streetracing other cars, basically dogging the living piss out of it on 23psi AND meth. The engine is BOUND to blow up. Like I've said before with the blue wagon WRX... When the egg has a hairline fracture on the shell, its bound to CRACK! It just so happen to take place on the dyno.

How can you explain when a NASCAR engine blows up, or an NHRA dragster's motor goes BOOM and the other doesnt? Its all on the workmanship, the parts quality and the how well it can handle loads of stress.

Its very convenient to blame somebody else when the fact remains, it was bound to happen. Man up and get it fixed... You gotta PAY if you want to PLAY!
no offence but the guy running the blue car is not exactly new to the game, or building engines and cars .. he's had one of the fastest street driven AWD cars in tampa since probably before you knew what a subaru was.

I dont doubt his ability to build and tune a very capable car and he definately knows his stuff. He is also from my dealings with him a very honest level headed guy. He didnt post all pissed, he posted in a calm factual manner with maturity.

I am gonna lock this thread too, not to silence anyone, nor to support any side but simply because honestly, having been involved in TR for almost 6 years now its just going to be a flame fest with inputs from everyone and their dog, mostly from people with no idea, or no connection to the issue at hand. Jerry and S&R will sort it out I am sure.
