Exhaust manifold got too hot and popped the tire. I've seen this somewhere, just can't remember where...

I sent you the link, it's the old NuFormz DCR car. They had been running it on the dyno all day and the exhaust manifold didn't have a shield on it to protect the driver side tire. It folded the dyno up like tin but in less than a month both the car, dyno and parking lot were all better again.

I sat on youtube for 2 hours watching similar videos. You'd be surprised how many dyno runs go wrong, and most are way worse than that.
