100k miles today, and still alive(just barely)

well the ol TII rolled over 100k miles today. The nice thing is it did it at the track, so it makes a good milestone. The shitty thing is it blew off a line and ran 18:1 AFRs at 14 psi thru 3rd and 4th, and blew fuel all over the engine, so when i got back to the pits it was on fire. It also blew the charge piping apart at about the 1000ft line.

The happy ending is I put out the fire, fixed the line, and drove it home, it doesnt seem to have detonated or anything, still runs great.

Just in case anyone is wondering, even on that shitty pass i still trapped 119.7, so there is some hope for 130s. I am taking the piping to work with me tomorrow to roll the ends.

anyway thought you guys might like my crazy story...
