Default Eddie Griffin crashes Ferrari Enzo

Haven't seen this posted yet. Most have probably seen this on TV. Don't know whether to laugh or cry.

I laugh, but only because it's Eddie Griffin.

Some people can drive a car and others have money to waste.

damn shame.. these things seem to be crashing at a pace similar to the Porsche CGT... The people that buy these cars should be taught how to drive them..

BTW there is a beautiful yellow enzo in Calgary.

I think it's owned by the guy who owns ZR Auto. He also owns a few other shops in the same area.

I saw that enzo in brag creek a few years ago. Very very nice car.

As well why let an inexperienced driver drive it on a closed track where you have a concrete barriers a few feet from a corner?

Nah, that should polish right out.

Unbelievable that anyone would put such a quack behind the wheel of such a rare, powerful, and expensive automobile, and then design a slalom course that includes concrete barriers in the run-off areas.

Yeah the course didn't look like it was designed by anyone who really knew what they were doing either, why have the barriers so close to the slalom turns.

I like how there is a guy right behind the barrier that gets crashed into and he barely moves before the impact. Either the car was going that fast, or he had no idea he was right in the line of fire so to speak. Pretty dangerous.

Yeah WWTDD has posted a pretty convincing argument that this was all staged.
