When watching this make sure you stand and salute! lol
Is this what is known as an "Italian tune up"?

I'm disappointed it didn't even last a min. Must not have had oil either?

I was kinda surprised too. But I guess it could have been toasted bad enough already. Here is a clip of a 240D Merc. that took a bit of a beating.

If your bored just do a search for "Engine blow" in YouTube.

I wouldn't expect anything to last that long. It would have overheated fast without any airflow. The first one probably didn't even have coolant flowing.

Me too. I don't understand why people find this so funny and entertaining.
To me, it's like setting fire to a loaf of bread or a 50$ bill. Why would you do it?
never seen it before?
so? ... im sure we all have imaginations. I don't care how "ruined" people say an engine is. If it runs enough to red line it's probably worth something to someone.
