It was a 456 which blew out one of the under plenum hoses which led to Ferrari updating all those hoses to high quality silicone hoses for the front engine V12 cars.

Which means, yes, I saw it but trying to find a way of blocking the all the years from my memory.

Yeah, it grenaded and then turned into what looked like a ruptured steam pipe on a New York City sidewalk.

PS – 20 years or so ago I saw a clip of a test car on the Ferrari track, 550 (?) doing crazy boot leg turns, frying rubber down the track and full on U-Turns and about 20 seconds into the clip – BLAMO and steam?  Engine?  Looked like he blew the engine but most likely it was the big pipe in engine head valley.  Anybody else see that?
