I was using a 2-step rev limiter (lauch control) and I launched, and then towards the end of first it stopped running. That was last night. So I pushed it to a nearby parking lot and left it. I'm at work now, Im going to have it towed home as soon as I'm off.

I have a fealing the timing belt skipped some teeth. It made a grinding sounds once, then no more, so the grinding was probably valves bending, though I hope not.
