my saturday night mess.

my theory of littering the track with oil to slow everyone down just didnt work out very well for me...

for those that didnt see this, i grenaded my motor about the start finish line on the final 5 minute practice.

after i took it all apart, i had 3 distinct holes in the block and other misc. scratches. i could not find the middle section(probably all the rubble in the case) of the rod and the cam was in two pieces. head it probably toast b/c the valves hardly move with out a hammer. corey will be fixing my flywheel. time to get the wife to cough up some money...

btw, she will be driving donna's kart on saturday. see if she enjoys it. if so we might have our first lady in the field next late next year.

I hope this isn't premature but talk to Jeremy, Dustin or Craig. I think they are going to start putting engines together at a very reasonable price. Motors are strong! If you haven't noticed, they are winning races.

Or you could just claim one! Just kidding.

Chuck, it looks like you could still salvage the pulse fitting.

That was my plan but it did not work out for me ;D

Ummm what did the bottom of the top plate look like? I want to get rid of mine, but am afraid what would happen if my engine blew up like yours.

just has oil all over it, couple scratches but no idea if that was b/c of this or not.
