Alright ! I blew my engine and I need help. Please

To the OP, I'm sorry about the engine. I agree with others that you should fix it, sell it as a stock car and find a 997.1 GT 3 or Turbo (if you can stand the AWD). These engines are made to withstand the rigors of tracking and mods.
I'd probably get some Ferrari fender shields too.
If you get the motor your mechanic found you could do a custom Carrera GT Turbo S X51 RS badge.
And you'll need a personalized license plate "Flame Thrower". We'll have to figure out how to get that down to 7 letters.

Is X51 is stronger motor ? I'll be using the car at track again for sure. I have spoke to Vosion Motor sport in SoCal and he can have my race ready rebuild engine for about 18k everything included. Which is mean a lot of work to cranksharft(grind drill ETC), bettet rods , JE piston , head works , spring , retainet value , tuned and that could be 4.0 liter. But 4.0 liter is not making much hp as he said.
X51 will cost less but I dont know how reliable it will be fro track.
Input please.

OP it's not a surprise to be me you blew your motor. You were completely showboating in a beginner group. You were downshifting/bouncing rev limiter and intimidating other cars throughout the first session.
Well I happen to be in that group becuase other group are full. And I don't think I intimidating anyone if you slow then point by. Down shifting bouncing rev limiter ? How do you know ? I doubt anyone stay at my tail at anytime.
Too bad they didnt move me up to other group. But I did request them already. Sorry if I push you on the track. But like I said if you slow then point by is the way to do. No one force anyone to do anything.
Word from other track members that ran in the same group as you says you drove terribly and sloppy around the track. And I also saw you driving erratically in the first session so this is in conclusion, driver error. Suggestion is sell the car as is and purchase driving school classes at the track.

keep talking.
Lol push me on the track? you have got to be kidding me.. Sure you were passing everyone out there but it was clearly your car. As for the driver im not so sure.. I seen your lines and they were terrible.

I did request but like I said they didn't want me to.
I don't track my car but I have a question about the op's video. It appears as tough the engine goes and then he coasts in neutral for quite awhile. It seems to me that doing so could have resulted in a dangerous situation for other drivers. Also, how did the op know he wasn't spewing oil all over the track that would either cause an accident or at the least a shutting down for a clean up. I'm not trying to jump on the bandwagon but rather understand track ethics in a situation like this.
Sorry about you car and I hope sort it out and enjoy the car. Or sell it and get something that's designed to handle your style of driving.

Probably because they knew you were a bad driver from past attendances. As for your "FIA License" it's all bull**** because you have no proof of your driving skills. Your youtube account doesn't show any past track experiences so jokes on you. Can you upload a video of yourself yelling on the phone "I BLEW MY MOTTA" with your accent?
