Watch this Dyno Pull...oops!!! LOL
As the clip from 1320video shows, right around the 35-second mark, the tire goes boom, and takes out most of the rear clip in the process.
The bumper is trashed, and the rim is ready to be scrapped, and the mangled metal inside the wheel well shows just how destructive renegade rubber can be. Given there didn't seem to be any safety precautions in place here, it's a good thing nobody was hurt when it popped. At the least the driver seemed to have a sense of humor about everything.
Don't miss the slo-mo action toward the end of the clip. And don't try this at home.
And that ladies and gentlemen is why you don't buy used tires
seriously though that could have seriously hurt anyone that was standing behind or to the side of the car, they should probably not have run that out in the open like that

Not even that, his tires were probably not speed rated for the speeds he was hitting on the dyno.
I like how the guy felt the "wire loom" on the fuel neck protected it from damage. That wire loom cover is a huge mistake. It promoted the rotting of my ex-wife's filler tube on her '01 Mustang.
Anycase, regardless of the car, that sucks, but good that no one appears injured.
