I had a great weekend watching all the cars and bikes run the mile, the only drag was my Vette was not ready, here is a picture of a Lambo going through the mile on Fire

I've heard:
A. oil line blew off the turbo and ignited
B. over-rev, rod through block, oil ignited
All I know is I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it on fire. BTW, that picture was taken at 200+ mph.

This was such a great event. I was there all day Saturday. Wish I was there Sunday too; what a sight to see that Lambo go up in flames at 200
