Interesting video Craig, Did you notice the big Nitrous system? It hink they were winding it up and then hit the nitrous causing a big intake back fire. The fireball blew the Cold air intake apart but I'm not sure if there was a major engine blow up though. It would be interesting to find out what realy happened.
That Python site I got the sound clip from is a ripper. I spent ages poking around there the other day. Check it out...
