    In an unrelated story. The guy that crashed the Enzo on PCH got three years in prison.

    Ouch, at least it was being driven instead of sitting in some garage with a truck parked on top of it. Well, atleast I know who not to call for a co-driver. HA!

    This is precisely why I do not bring my Enzo to the AX.

    Wow, "Brotha can't drive" that says it all. He looked like he wanted to put his sunglasses on and go cry. BTW they said there were 4 Porche GT's totalled in the movie Red Line. That should be worth seeing just for that but I'm not sure if I want to cry in public so I might wait for the DVD.
    Blah blah blah!

    Uhhhh... they had a non-professional driver in a $1.5million car running what looked like some practice laps around a large "autocross type" course (infield parking lot with course marked out with cones). Seems like someone would have thought the design out better than putting a concrete barrier that close to a turn in the course.

    I'm not excusing the lack of driving skills, but geez... how about a little run-off room while you're letting someone flog your Ferrari for the first time?

    Course was probably set up by someone who didn't know better. Funny thing is it was owned by the movie producer.

    Did you notice the guy standing behind the concrete barrier? He never moves when the car is coming right at him!

    Why oh why are there stupid people of this type in the world.
    1) Dumbass who made the course with a barrier even near it.
    2) Dumbass who would let someone who probably hasn't even be in anything faster than a Yugo drive a priceless jem.

    It doesn't take smarts to have money. Hmmm, maybe that's why I'm broke.
