You have to give people some time to see it and reply. :p
What you want to do is listen for uneven pulses, to me it sounds like an apex seal in the rear rotor went.
How does it drive? Idle?

When my engine blew, these were the symptoms:
1) would start but would have to crank for a bit
2) had to rev and hold it to prevent the motor from dying (couldnt hold idle on its own)
3) lots of smoking from the exhaust
4) engine was shaking violently
Then I took apart the engine and found my rear rotor, rear rotor housing, and rear rotor apex seals all destroyed.
