This is why, as much as a pain in the a$$ they are, you need to run a blanket or shield. I don’t know if this car had one, but I doubt it. I have no idea how fast this car is, my guess it’s just above the 10.99 e.t. that requires one. Most likely a 727. I could be wrong, but I don’t think 904’s explode like that.

Mine made a bigger mess than that , the hemi`s oilpan was laying on the ground holding the engine up.
Thirtyish yrs later (or whatever) when they finally redid the dragstrip, I was told there was still parts of my trans. in the grass outside the starting line .
