The same person who put the laws in on which such epic engine relies to run, upon which it is built, the same Creator has a plan and purpose for your life. Seek Him and you will find Him, ask Him and He will answer, knock and He will open. He did not leave us to our destruction, but came into the flesh in Jesus to make all things new. The reason we find ourselves in meaninglessness is because we are far from home, far from our home with God the Father. That's why He sent His only begotten Son, that we may find our home again, and our Father, through His Son, Christ Jesus. Amen

Failure diagnostics: 1:55 all four exhaust tubes are visible. 2:01 you can see the back exhaust tube slowly falling. The heat didn't melt the steel tubes, it just made them so hot that they entered the superplastic or ductile area, just like when forging steel. Given their length, weight and vibrations, it's no wonder they bent down like hot candy! It 'only' took them nearly two minutes to collapse and you kept driving with them bent almost longer than when they were straight! Ahahahha epic! Ignorance is bliss! A simple support frane or a suspension cable would hold them up next time- minimum effort for maximum efficiency :) Excellent video!

The counterbalance of the engine itself is more than enough for the vehicle itself it'd be a different story if the car actually had some build to it instead of being some kind of simple craft the engines would either not work in it's entirety or would provide push but no kinetic transference
