A blown head gasket doesn't "just happen" on its own
100% true but a weak one weakened by overheating can be blown by excessive acceleration if it isn't already bad. If it is getting hot, stopping is the best advice I have ever heard. Can mean the difference between replacing a hose or a thermostat compared to 2 cracked heads. Never pour cold water in a radiator of an overheated engine. Bad news.
