I was worried it was going to be a wreck. Glad it wasn't, but that's some serious carnage.

Damn that's some impressive carnage. All that money into that bow tie build down the drain. Time for an LS? Lol

Bummer...but the price of the sport, I guess.

The first few seconds of that run were impressive. Sheesh that thing is (was) a monster.

Damn, that would almost make me want to throw in the towel. Going to get expensive there.

....very, very sorry to see this happen to your truck. Been their myself, only my experience was
feeling 2X as bad when the previous builder decided to line his pockets at the same time.

But that water over the damn dam (so to speak).....You now have an "opportunity" to decide your future direction.
Technology has changed so drastically in the last 4 years, and competitive racing is faster than ever (7's or less in some/most
instances for 1/4 mile). Whether its chassis setups (tubular), trick suspension, weight reduction (carbon fiber),
or ProMod-ish features (like seen in HotRod Drag week's Larry Larson, or Tom Bailey) your new build could be an even
bigger monster street/strip truck.

And I have no doubt that you have the talent and resources to make a Mrsyclone 2.0 truly special.

With all the records he broke and still holds would be enough for me. You inspired and continue to inspire us all sir. Sorry about what happened I am sure 2.0 will be even more bad ass.

Re: Mrsyclone... oh no

Bummer. I wonder what broke first? Eagle (at least Eagle style) rod?

If I know Robert, he already has another motor ready to be installed.

Ouch, the damage to the engine/trans is probably more than my truck is worth. In the video, until his motor boring his truck looks really fast I bet it's absolutely incredible in person. I know my truck looks slow from the in cab video compare to how fast it feels.

Ohhhhhh man that sucks. I couldn't even imagine, seriously couldn't. The truck is amazing and enjoy all of his Sy videos. I Bet he'll be back soon with even better videos, smashing the track and streets........

Honestly if he had eagle rods I am surprised they took such a beating for so long. With the numbers he was putting down thought he would have had Oliver rods.

From the video, the rods are h-beams like eagle rods are. 4.3 Oliver rods are i-beams. It wouldn't surprise me if Robert had custom rods for his engine.
