Sagaris vs Honda ITR and resultant engine failure

[minicooperturbo]

A couple of days ago, I was driving home along the A33 when I came across a Honda Integra Type R.

I followed him off the roundabout in the outside lane of the road. Once we where past traffic, he pulled in, and gave me the thumbs up - which was nice of him.

A bit later, I caught up with some traffic, which allowed the Honda to catch up. Once the traffic pulled out the way, both me and the Honda booted it. Then:

BOOF!

The honda's engine lets go, stream and smoke pouring from the back of his car.

I felt quite sorry for him...

Whats the chance of that happening between the two cars?

The only ever ITR engine failure I have heard of, was down to chap pushing more than 400bhp and decided to try a 150 shot of NOS as well, not surprising really!.

When the words 'Sagaris', 'Honda' and 'engine failure' are put together in the same scentence I unfairly assumed that it was referring to the TVR.

Relieved to hear it wasn't the case. But clearly this forum is good at cultivating S6 paranoia, even in me!

So whats that got to do with a Sagaris Miniman???
