  • In the heart of the diesel racing world, where horsepower records are made and broken, Shawn Baca stood as a true titan. His truck, known to all as "The Master Shredder," was a testament to his unrelenting pursuit of power and precision. Equipped with a monstrous Cummins engine, it had become a legend in its own right, consistently shattering dyno records.
    The "Weekend of the Edge" event was an institution in the diesel racing community, celebrating two decades of adrenaline-pumping action. This year promised to be no different, with competitors from far and wide converging on the event to push their machines to the limit.
    As the crowds gathered and the engines roared to life, anticipation hung in the air like a palpable force. The Master Shredder, boasting a jaw-dropping 2900-plus horsepower, was poised to unleash its fury on the track. The engine, fortified with billet components and energized by diesel fuel and nitrous oxide, was a ticking time bomb of raw power.
    At the 4:25-minute mark, as captured in the video footage, the world witnessed the moment that would go down in diesel racing history. The Master Shredder, in a blaze of glory, succumbed to the relentless abuse it had endured. The engine, strained beyond its limits, erupted in a catastrophic failure that sent shockwaves through the event.
    The deafening roar of the explosion was matched only by the gasps of the spectators. In an instant, the power of 2900-plus horsepower was transformed into a maelstrom of smoke and fire. It was a heart-stopping sight, a reminder of the inherent risks in the pursuit of such incredible power.
    Miraculously, amidst the chaos and destruction, there was a silver lining. The safety precautions in place ensured that no one in the vicinity was seriously harmed. Shawn Baca, the indomitable force behind The Master Shredder, bore the brunt of the damage. His arm had suffered third-degree burns in the fiery aftermath.
    In the weeks that followed, Shawn's journey was one of resilience and determination. His commitment to his craft, to the world of diesel racing, was unwavering. With grit and unwavering spirit, he rebounded from the setback, not as a victim but as a survivor.
    The "Weekend of the Edge" event had taught a poignant lesson to all who witnessed it-an acknowledgment of the inherent risks and the need for unwavering dedication to safety. It was a reminder that in the world of extreme horsepower and unforgiving engines, wearing a helmet and safety gear wasn't a choice; it was a lifeline.
    As Shawn Baca returned to the racetrack, his arm healed and his resolve stronger than ever, the diesel racing community rallied behind him. The Master Shredder, though scarred, was far from defeated. It was a testament to the enduring spirit of those who dared to push the boundaries, harness the raw power of engines, and chase glory in the world of diesel racing.

      When you’re dealing with a fuel system that operates at 20-30k psi and you’re making 3000 whp
      You have full understanding that the thing you are driving is a bomb. I’ve seen much worse explosions, but nothing that emitted that much fire. Safe to say before the pull an injector line or something broke resulting in the huge fire. The explosion itself was more or so lack of fuel/ignition of vapors in engine bay.

    • @TheEverWickedWonder
      @TheEverWickedWonder 3 роки тому +377

      So the white smoke would have been water and or coolant entering the combustion chamber. It could have been from a broken head gasket or damage to the turbo which also have coolant fittings. They definitely should have stopped at this point. The second indication that danger was afoot was the lack of black smoke. Which means the injectors were no longer dumping fuel. At least not enough to maintain a rich mixture which is what you want when making power on a diesel. My guess is that forced the engine to lean out causing excessive speed on the turbine, exacerbating the the air fuel ratio. Which would definitely cause the engine to explode.

      I think the very same thing, I don’t know a whole a lot about Diesel engines but as soon as I seen the white smoke and the slightly different sound in the engine I knew something wasn’t right. Thankfully the 2 guys in the truck and everyone else was ok. I wonder why he didn’t see lift at the first sign of trouble?....maybe he didn’t realize the problem.

    This reminds me of a guy I knew who put a blower on a built LA engine bored and stroked to 7.8L. He got a built trans, he built a strong rear end, he even stiffened the chassis. But, after all of that, he forgot to strengthen the engine mounting system and with 1100Ft/Lbs of torque the engine ripped loose and destroyed the whole front end.

      First time he launched and hooked it pretzelled the whole car, front passenger and rear driver's tires were still on the ground, other two were twisted up, rear end was half under the car, etc... Roll cage protected the driver.

      It started running away, because of the way they work if there is an issue with the fueling somehow or oil starts leaking into the cylinders then the engine can run away at way to high an rpm with no way to stop it, it goes boom, the only real way to stop a runaway is to stop the air, but diesels arent air controlled like a gas engine, there is nothing to slow the air down from the turbos, you gotta throw a cap on the end of the turbo, but as you can imagine that only works when you are super prepared for it, and you probably dont want a hood, so you can do it before getting blown up

      That's a lot easier to say thanks to nobody being injured or killed. But when something explodes that's made of metal, it certainly isn't hard to imagine a part of the engine flying into someone's skull. They probably should have had a lot more distance between the spectators. And people wonder where regulations come from, it's shit like this when someone is crippled or killed by an exploding engine and they weren't warned at all that an explosion could be a possibility. It reminded me of that moron FPSRussia guy or whatever his name is who loaded a shit load of lyddite into a truck and shot it. The door flew past him and missed him by about a foot and would have instantly killed him if it hit him. And then he wondered why the CIA raided his house and took his guns.

      Exactly. Those white puffs were the head gaskets letting loose more than likely as the head studs stretched. That could have turned out way worse for those 2 guys. I couldn't believe he didn't shut it down.

  • @smakfu1375
    @smakfu1375 2 роки тому +154

    Well, that's physics for yah. To generating that much power from, what is relative to a 17,000lb diesel commercial propulsion engine (that reliably generates 3000HP) a very small engine, you're dealing with significant volume of forced air+fuel mixture, compression, combustion and rotational speed. Anything goes wrong, such as connecting rod failure, valvetrain failure, ring disintegration, or virtually anything that introduces interference, and you're going to get a really impressive boom. Cummins makes a fine engine, but even if you replace every single component with the most exotic and expensive performance replacement part you can find, and reenforce the block, etc., the engine's basic architecture isn't designed, from a scale standpoint, to reliably and safely generate anything close to that kind of power. Do what these folks are doing, and you'll eventually get this result.

    Any analysis of the root cause?
    Consider the Pratt & Whitney geared turbofan. The gearbox between the high and low speed parts of the engine is carrying 30,000 horsepower. That’s how much power is being applied to the big fan at the front of the engine. It took something like a decade to work out the bugs so that this gearbox is fit for a jet engine.
    What makes guys think their engines will hold up when battered with ten or more times the forces for which they were designed?
    It was fun to watch! I guess that’s reason enough ;o)
