I'm not sure if this has been posted or not, but... I guess he had some nitrous and fuel rail blow-out. I couldn't find the full story.

man i seent his the other day on another forums im on......the story that was posted with it was.

 

 

"Long story short... N20 backfire took out the intake manifold and fuel rails at high speed. Guy thought the bottom end let loose... Didn't smell much at 150+mph. Rather than shut it down and have to stop with no brakes or power steering he coasted it to a stop. By the time it came to rest the open fuel and n2o lines had a huge blaze going. Took the FD 18mins to show up and put it out. The rest is history..."

 

I dunno how true this is but that was the story with the pictures.

I wonder what his insurance company will say about this as obviously he was running nitrous and obviously racing.

i doubt he'll tell them he had nitrous on it... he has taken off the bottle and looks like he is in the process of taking off the lines too...

let's hope there's no history anywhere that the insurance co. will find and then add in if it's been post fire removed.......no insurance and then fraud charges....that would suck. it's not like they are going to just simply dismiss a ZO6 burning up without some type of look-see.
