Default the death of the autobahn beast

short story I blew my motor tonight. and the sad thing about it I did not stomp any *** doing it.
I was prepping for a dyno contest last night, and detonate at 23 psi turned the boost down to 20psi. today drove the car to build my friends engine, and blew it on the way back.
0 compression in #3 and spark plug iground strap is broken off.
my last race of the year would have been next weekend. oh well! just hope I dope have to bore over, or get a new block.

that would be going SDRAWKCAB, I just bought a odyssey 3.5l vtec maybe I should boost that. I just hope the damage is not too bad, I drove it for 11km after I found out I blew it. I ran all lights and signs so I would not have to stop cause it won't idle.

it won't be down for long, its not daily driven so I can hang without it for a few months. I will start tearing it down next weekend, hope all I need to order is a new head gasket and a single piston. but if not I will get some coated mahle or supertech. and only use racegas above 14 psi.
