blown engine?

I was crusin down the Hwy and my budy saw sparks out my exhuast ..then flames.. turbo? wheel grinding?
and then as i was exiting the Hwy my car started lopeing like a ******* chevy (w/ cam). Any ideas if this could be a blown rotor, low compression. or missfireing. havent had time to compression test or work on it much.. its been raining like cats and dogs.

Thanks

Go try to start it back up. Youll be able to hear the way it sounds is very different from normal. IFit is blown and will start, it will act like it has all the power of a briggs and stratton lawnmower motor.
