VW WITH A BROKEN KNUCKLE

Went by Chico's Performance in Arcadia today. He showed me his race engine with the rod sticking up through the crankcase. This stuff happens pretty often when you've modified the engine crank out hundreds of horsepower over stock. Engine life is measured in minutes, not miles. New case, rod, pistons, maybe a crank.....then back to the track. This one happened up in Sacramento a couple weeks ago........Bruce

As a mere mortal, that just turns my stomach.....I've seen it before on a type 4 of my own.
