3-Minute Burnout Video!! (NOT on here)

I was just wondering if anyone else had seen this video or not? I downloaded it the other day off of Bearshare (though you might be able to access it from other Gnutella clients) and it was some guy doing a straight 3-minute burnout in a 1st gen!! No, not a straight line one, he was going in circles back and forth.... Eventually, yes, he did blow the engine, but I'd imagine 3-minutes @ redline in damn near any car would blow an engine... but I suspect that the rotary engine would last longer @ a continuous 3-minute redline than most any other car...

Anyway, if you wanna see it, you can download it from Bearshare.... Just thought I'd spread the word that it was out there for anyone that hasn't seen it or heard about it.

you know why he blew the engine? not a crazy port 1st of all and second of all look at the rear left tire right before the engine goes you can see that it shreds apart then unloads. hence the blowing of something in the engine (struggle at 9 or 10 grand then bam open to go to 11 or 12k)

i saw the dark green one that vid was pretty cool. I listened and watched the 3 min one for awhile couldn't hear the rpms spike, sounded just like a exhaust failure, not higher rpm. I dunno pretty cool though. did you guys hear the guy in the background? "blew his radiator"

Well all i know is it was probably caused by that tire but i think your right you can hear it whine than some weird noise like a real bee. lol when you think about it the pressure it would build up of 3 minutes of 9k redline the flow trru the cooling system would be unreal and one small hole would cause it to blow. if anyone wants to host the 3 minute tell me i can send it to ya.

That vid rocks! Think he won the contest? I love how crazy the crowd gets, and then he responds.

I would like to see the green one also. I have seen white FC do it. The exhaust caught on fire before it blew hehe. Lasted a really long time. I think the whole video is 20 minutes long or so
