I just remembered. The weekend was Intense Drag Days a couple years back. Perhaps they've sorted their shit out since then, but that one weekend I saw more piston engines blow up than I've ever saw rotaries blow up in person, and that is exactly why I'm so against 3800's.

This same friend also went through three 3800 Supercharged engines and four transmissions in his Regal. His car was tuned by a guy who used to run Regals as well, but found them to be so problematic that he switched to a Cobalt SS. He now runs 12's in his Cobalt SS, Rob I believe to be his name (not sure what his last name is).

Nice! was it an IDD at Norwalk? and the FWD tannys for those cars were junk to begin with IMO... but ive never heard to many stories of 3800 popping like that.. hmm food for thought
