Talk about throwing a rod. There was literally a piece of a connecting rod laying on the ground.

1) S65.... Sound and Thrill of driving an 8.4K redline v8 2) F80+.. Can beat the s65 by a second or less at a drag strip; electric steering, bla bla... all while pumping fake engine noise through the stereo.. |

I don't think this incident by itself is what resulted in the rod going through the block, rather how this guy must have treated this car up until this happened.

It would have been funny if the cameraman slipped on the oil.

Wait.. what does this video have anything to do with an F8x M3/M4?
LOL, we went from an S65 spilling its guts to hating on the S55. |

It's the internet. I'm just surprised nobody's blamed what happened in that video on Trump or Obama yet. Throwing a little shade at the new M3/M4 doesn't seem so bad, considering haha.

I think this might be Obama's fault.

Also have zero sympathy because that's just abusing the car. Poor S65 |

Seems like an edited video to scare us. They won't even show a clear shot of the car, or the engine. No smoke coming from engine bay???

I think any car you do this to will have the same consequences!

Totally agree. Sure it was revving for a bit but so what. There is quite a lot of fairly long term high revving done on the tracks with these cars. Or check out the high speed videos, going full metal through the gears up to 300km/h is a close to revved out exercise for quite some time. This engine I believe was on its way out...

Observations
1. If you are going to blow an engine, what a lame way to go. On a drag strip, sure - going around in circles, stupid. 2. Blair Witch cameraman needs to watch a few more videos to get better 3. It was a beautiful car. R.I.P |

I did not know it overheated and blew up. I thought it was just an engine failure. There is a big electric fan to provide airflow at lower speeds.
