Default Enzo crash

who saw the enzo crash?

i DON'T think the enzo understeers like that...

i think what happened was that he was going fast STRAIGHT...

turned right TOO late...watch the wheels its not even pointing enough...

decided not to TURN all the way, but instead BRAKED while trying to straighten the front tires....and locked up the front tires...

that does not look like the enzo understeers like that. he did some funky wacky driving.

Here's what happened: Some dumb@ss put another dumb@ss behind the wheel of a $1.5M highly capable super car. That's about all you need to know.

Even though they're no longer in production, I'm sure Ferrari would fix it for...ehh...$1.5M

You are WAY overanalyzing what happened. The car had nothing to do with the accident.

I betcha' I can make an Enzo understeer or oversteer or whatever you want. Just find me one to drive and I'll prove it

Ummm....easy? Drive into a corner too fast and/or turn-in beyond what the front tires can handle. Pretty novice mistake if you ask me (I've been there). Also pretty easy to correct, but only if you have that experience. It is a mid-engine car after all...

Here's how...

He jumped out of his limo, sat down in a car he had no f***** clue how to drive, and overshot a corner. Now that's talent!

Be on the lookout for more Deuce Bigalow movies. That dude's gotta find a way to pay the Enzo owner back once his insurance denies that claim.
