maybe kicked a rod and threw the belts.... You can see the belt hit the ground early in the run.

Sucks to see. So now day 1 he's out, Bailey is out, Lutz is out and I think Morris is struggling with the wagon as well.
They said Bailey may be joining the $7500 drag car challenge for the week, but he has to find a car (look up cleetus mcfarland channel, if anything its been very funny, they are on episode 2) That really sucks about Matt's car. I am sure he has the data showing the voltage dropping then the oil pressure dropping. I think tire shake might have caused it all? The big block big tire guys are sure in a tough spot with a 302 cubic inch mustang with a factory block and head casting in #1 overall.

You would think with all the factory parts in his build, he would be the one having the breakage issues...

In the video they say that the motor didn't fail because of the belt. It threw the belt because of the engine failure. I was thinking "Matt, Rich, did you see the video? We can see the belt hit the track one second before the crash!" So I watched the video again at 12:23 in slow motion. Now, I don't think that is the belt we see hitting the track, it is something else. It looks too solid to be a belt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjLtcJiqZuc
