Default WSCB recap (Blown Engine)
Well we made it back from the WSCB in one piece and had a great time. The bad news is that while finishing my last lap of my third track time my engine grenaded! It was a very bad sound and it appears one or more of my rods broke and a probabable cracked block. On the bright side, I had the time of my life turning some fast laps with GT 40's, Coupes, and Roadsters. It was amazing. I have already talked with my engine builder and now I have to decide if I am going to do another 460 or do a stroker 521. I will have a stronger bottom end with H-beam rods this time and will have between 550 and 580HP.
