It's a lot like a race car

The M3 was racing. If you watch the vid you can see that the M3 does nail it off the line. If you think that M3 even stood a chance you need to look up how fast AWD turbo Eclipses and Talons are.

As far as launching, that's the way you do it with those cars. If you want a good hole shot, you've gotta do that. Either way, the launch had nothing to do with the motor going, that would just blow the tranny(which he had done 2 weeks earlier. That's why he said "Here's my tranny test")

That car is modded pretty good, he pushing about 400hp. The bottom ends are notorusly weak, so it's not that's surprizing that he blew the bottom end, even he admits it was just a matter of time. As far as him not knowing jack about his car.....er......he's the one that's got it torn down in his driveway. Looks like he knows his stuff. And I don't know about you, but if I blew the motor in my GT my parents would be mad, would I still pay for it, oh hell yes. but they'd still be pissed.

So get off the kids back, he blew his car. BFD, lots of people on this board have broken their car. He'd probably have no problem dispatching lots of mustangs on this board.
