As I said in posts #35 and #36, I believe it was over-revved. The engine was highly stressed at 11.5 and there were/are weak links in the chain which caused all hell to break loose. Obviously, something went very wrong. These engines do not really like anything north of 6500 - and people forget this (even when they build them and use so-called special parts). This is no Ducati where you can ring it to 11K. With that amount of compression if it's wrung out to a high amount and the throttle claps down quickly for the next shift seriously crazy s**t happens.
