Was that due to a mis-shift? The early production E46 M's had some connecting rod bearing issues. BMW had blamed mis-shifts until the SMG cars started blowing up too.
There was one at Mid-ohio (SMG) that blew up in the braking zone off the back straight (probably coming down from 135 mph in that car), slid sideways into the gravel trap and rolled over.
