Just curious, what would you do if this happened while driving down the road? Maybe drag it down to a stop with the brakes, throw it in park, then bail out and run?
Well if you don't have a air cut off valve, I think the engine is toast. I drive a manual and in fours years I have only killed the engine about three times, starting off from a stop. Understand the normal method is to release the clutch then step on the throttle, and as close to zero slipping as you can. I don't think even with my Double Disk clutch dropping the hammer in OD (5th) would kill it.
