This 800 HP Chevrolet Camaro's Transmission Caught Fire!

Andrew Zurick, the proud owner of a spectacular Camaro ZL1, was involved in an exciting incident during a dyno test. The high-powered vehicle showed up to brag about its abilities, and the audience was impressed by the 829 horsepower it produced after being tuned for E85. Sadly, fate had different intentions.

During the final dyno run of the day, as the driver prepared to ease off the throttle, a disturbing scene played out: metallic bits cascaded from the car's underbelly. Fires broke out beneath the car, and the situation quickly deteriorated after the seat and curtain airbags were unexpectedly deployed.

Luckily, the person filming acted quickly to put out the fire. The team at the shop did some digging and found a crack in the tail shaft housing of the transmission. The crack here is what caused the blast. The good news is that everyone can learn something from this incident. Safety precautions must always be prioritized throughout such efforts, making sure the excitement of performance does not overshadow the significance of careful execution.
