I don't know what was wrong with this guy. He was staring (I think he was on some kind of drugs) and just revving his poor motor non stop I mean it must of been a good 2 minutes of him revving his sh!tbox to redline. :shakes head:

Green light, he smashes the gas again and KABOOM! Middle of intersection puking its guts out underneath. :icon14:

The world is full of stupid people, keep your head on a swivel. :rolleyes:

Flew to Boston, then friends picked us up to go to their house on Lake Winnipesaukee in NH for about 5 days. Then they drove us back to Boston where we are still at until Wed and then we fly home.

This post made my morning :roflpuke2:

But what interests me is why the motor actually exploded? Do these things happen only due to revving, or do we suspect he absolutely cooked his oil which then failed and caused other issues, or could it be something else?

A good solid 2 minutes of redline revving is going to heat the oil up exponentially. Then you put it under load (with little lubrication due to it being cooked) and well, kaboom! Plus its like 110degrees here in Florida. His temps must have been higher than he was. :icon14:

Pretty sure dude was meth'd out of his mind, it's Florida after all. :icon17:

Just had a band of rain come through. Winds of 30+mph. Rain drops the size of quarters. Blew all of the floaty toys out of the pool.

JARblue 07-28-2022 01:34 PM
