They saw your AMG cruise by, park, walk back towards car, and "oh **** close the hood! AMG owner coming." IDK, car is an exercise in automotive tuning contradictions. I can see someone running the 1320 with those SUV wheels on it, but then if your going to add NOS, makes you wonder about the install. Plastic fittings?

Explain that to the BMW regional rep. Gheesh.

That sucks...I hate seeing any engine blowing up like that....and as far as his drag set-up....hey at least he is taking it to the track....maybe he wanted to see how the exact set-up he runs on the street does at the track. I respect that more than some keyboard dragsters...

Throw some blood on the hood and bumper and tell your insurance company you hit a deer.

I don't condone insurance fraud, but I am also not a huge fan of insurance companies. Strip the car, dump her into the ocean, then report it stolen.
