I didnt really know where to put this one, technically it is a "rotary kill" but I found it on a Z car forum I go to and I didnt know whether to be proud of the old girl, or cry for the poor girl. so I did both. dial ups beware, the vid's about 10 minutes long and isnt exactly exciting....

done by the crazy guys who post at teamfc3s.

im pretty sure one rotor was blown or something and they thought the rest would be unusable.

yeah, they said at the beginning that they had a rotor blown....

I dont think any other engine coulda taken that abuse. I would like to see how long it'd last at 9K under a load though.
