Default S2000 Engine Failure? Video Inside

So had my S2000 on track at VIR and had some weird issues. At about 6:15 in the video you can start to hear issues with the engine and really no power at 6:35.
The car wont start now. I Just want to make sure the actual engine failed before I pull it for no Reason.

Need a ton more info.

As mentioned above, what happens when you try to start it ? Lets start there

If it does not do anything but click when you try starting it, check battery voltage (low battery voltage will cause it to run like hell before it finally shuts down ... I ran into this at a track event and it would not rev past about 7500, sounded like crap, low power, etc). If the battery voltage looks good we can go from there on where to look.

If it cranks but doesnt start, does it sound normal when it cranks over? Does it sound like some cylinders have no compression, etc?
