I will go out on a limb and say unfortunately it won't be a full field, or if it is the "bump" will be really soft.
Hope I'm wrong.....................

It'll only go "boom" once! Haha, but trust me it's not pretty! We blew our first burst panel at snowbirds, I now have a huge crack in the side of the body!
Moe, it's a good thing I don't hold my breath when waiting on my ticket from Will!

The "boom" is always followed by $$$$$$$$$

We got super lucky, and didn't hurt anything major... Must have gotten a piece of dirt in #1 nozzle, it got way lean and detonated the cylinder and popped the burst panel. Pulled bottom end between qualifying sessions, all was good, slapped a new rod bearing in it and went back out and ran 3.79 (went 3.76 when it popped). Tore down after the race and the head had a little damage, but it's already been repaired!

That's the beauty of the billet heads, very repairable. How many total nozzles do you have?
