Chief you don't know how this breaks my heart.
Obviously the brother can't drive as he says.It was a classic supercar midengined amateur crash.He understeered so long into that wall,he had enough time to punch it and kick the ass out into a spin or pile on the brakes and stop in time,that car would.I used to autocross my '79 Trans Am in the SCCA events in Philly and I can tell you a greasy parking lot with zero grip is not the place to check the trtaction limits.The car needs shaved tires to cope with that sort of greasy surface and to build up heat in the tires.Notice how the main integrity of the car is untouched and it survived a big mid air and all the wheels were pointing the right way.
The Enzo gets all this sensationalist press after the last 160mph PCH crash and it is a shame as it is a great car.I know what happened by watching the video,in a car like that,you can just drive it on the amazing traction it already has and corner and corner until the loaded grip will just give out,he obviously just let out of the throttle when he started to try to turn and skated straight ahead.So either massive braking or punching it big time,and he would have enough power even at low revs,with out a problem,and why was there concrete walls with these wally driving.The owner/producer got more publicity through this for what appears a very lacklustre film.Again if you drive such an amazing car without using the throttle and just turning in by coastin,the big understeer will hapen.
The moral of the story is don't let Undercover Brother drive your ride unless it is a '69 Coupe de Ville with fuzzy dice balls

I knew you would pick up on this, Dave.

He's still a schumkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.

On sad note did you see Eric Medlin died of his injuries. He was certainly the heir apparent to Joh Force.

Apparently 'Undercover Brother',one of my favorite films,holds the world's record for the slowest Ferrari Enzo crash.Apparently it helps to be a drunk billionaire who is 'borrowing' someone elses car when you crash it,usually into 3 large pieces.Surely Ferrari have surpassed any government regulated crash testing regulations!

You can never have enough money or the fastest car,cause that's a game for fools and idiots,there seem to be no shortage of either..
Such a waste of a beautiful tool of pure speed.
