Bloody hell!

cooorrrrrrr thats a big pop.

Wouldn't happen in real life, did you hear the noise out of it for those few seconds, any driver would be straight off the throttle. I'm guessing it is one of those endurance unmanned test beds that manfactures use to clock up the hours

must be Red Bulls new engine supplier

FUBAR!!!!

And that kids, is why your not allowed in the test cells when the engines running!

Looks like everything below the crank vanished...

Just back it off a bit.

can't see it work says its a naughty site

You can just imagine the pain you'd be feeling if that were your freshly built race motor being run-in

I would think that this was a destruct test. The manufacturers do this to see what breaks. All part of there development program. See what breaks and why.

It was a destructive test....I remember SAAB doing a similar test but they drove the car over a metal spike to "remove" the sump. Think the thing kept going for about 95 miles or something silly like that
