Yup.. she split just under the head bolts.. (studs) This is a weak area when the boost gets as high as those guys tend to run... They do have recasted blocks that are thick in this area to prevent this... (at least the red tractor do.. as they seem to be a little more prone to this disaster) Not sure how old this pic is.. most clubs have some rule about saftey for this... Usually a cable around the engine.. some have two cables.. but I think most have gone to just one cable toward the front of the engine... then it blows the upper part of the engine over the front of the tractor.. and not on to the driver or crowd... There are some good pics of the Hurricane Allis the came apart not too long ago.. and some good ones of a red tractor with a group of people standing around the upper part of the engine sitting about 15ft out in front of the tractor...
