So what exactly happened. The article isnt very descriptive except that they stated the following...
So it's suprising that the racecar's SR20DE pushed it's crank into the oil pump and destroyed the bottom end.
What was the initial cause for the engine failure?

my guess...bad bearings, or inproper assembly. im suprised it did that, though, instead of throwing the #2 rod, like everybody else

I wonder if he hit the corner too hard, starved the pump, spun the bearing and then pushed it to 7800 and it went byebye!

Going by just that quote, possible failed thrust bearing?
