Car was great in 1st gear. As soon as I shifted in to top gear the car would start to nose over.

i dont think the karam car blew up. i think it had a pretty decent weekend, i saw it run 2 x 8 sec passes which probably makes it one of the only cars to run more than 5 x 8 sec passes in total...
i saw IGNITE do a few passes and it left heaps hard but yea.. didnt seem to come home, extremely long first gear, i could swear this car was at half track before it banged 2nd!!
