off my rocker!!

well im driving home and my new engine develops a miss fire!! about an hour before i had done a helacious 1st and 2nd gear burnout from about a 25mph roll (showing off for my dad! he's got a big block)! anyways i keept driving home about 10 or 12 miles. when i get home i start checking things turns out #2 hole is dead!! had spark had fuel!! so i pulled the oil cap to have a peak. and bam the #2 intake rocker arm is just laying there!!!

but how lucky am i that the lifter didnt come out of its bore!

got it fixed but the problem is will it happen again?
