no other signs of burning either looking at the fire rings & general gasket condition so just looks localized to the weakest area of that part of the gasket (between fixings) 
make sure the escaping gases have not eroded/deformed the block or head carefully 
a nitrous induced failure I presume
after cleaning away the scorch marks i can barely feel anything with my nail. Guess i dodged a bullet this time. no other signs of burning either looking at the fire rings & general gasket condition so just looks localized to the weakest area of that part of the gasket (between fixings) make sure the escaping gases have not eroded/deformed the block or head carefully a nitrous induced failure I presume Edited by Sardonicus on Saturday 30th August 11:56
Yes a nitrous mistake. I have a 3rd nitrous solenoid with a very small jet that is operated by the left red button on the steering wheel. This is to weaken the mix as it goes rich off the scale on the wideband when i am full tilt in 3rd gear. Works a treat. BUT... i didnt use stage 1 (the full throttle system) and hit the left button with stage 2 (the right button). So it may have gone a weak towards for a moment!
