With the masses of power and super explosive, high-octane fuels used in the world of drag racing, when things go wrong, the results are quite spectacular. This footage - shot at the Good Vibrations Bakersfield March Meet last week - is a prime example, showing the moment Sean Belt’s supercharger tried to escape in explosive style, contained by some particularly burley retention straps.

Fortunately, Belt was able to bring the car to a stop without further incident.

The velocity must’ve been too much for the supercharger.

Good thing for the driver: He can cancel his waxing appointment.
