For anyone who doesn't know, the Ferrari Enzo and the McLaren SLR are two out of the three or four fastest street vehicles on the planet. When you're driving one of them, NO ONE messes with you. When they encountered each other, it was a test to see who had the biggest cohones.

I think there are less than 100 enzos in the states (less than 99 now!)so that is an ultra rare Ferrari. If it were mine, I'm sure I'd puch it quite often and it sucks he wrecked it. At least it went down in a blaze of glory and no one was seriously injured or killed.

It kind of reminds me of the hockey player Danny Heatley's fatal ferrari accident here in Atlanta. It happened 5 min from my house. I went by the scene on the way to the gym before I knew it happened and saw yellow Ferrari parts strewn across the roadway. It was a sad story and I often go to the bar where they were hangin out before they wrecked.

I think these guys buy the cars and think that since they cost so much, they can handle in manners that defy physics! Being a corvette owner, you have to know the limits of your car before you just jump in and hit the twisties full bore. I am guilty of spinning out because I thought I could handle better than it did and from not having a fast car for over five years!

Click on the link DRTY posted. The quote is as follows:

"According to [police spokesman] Brooks, [owner] Erikssen said a German named "Dietrich" was driving the car. Police said the Ferrari may have been involved in a race with a Mercedes-McLaren SLR."

The image of those two racing stuck with me.

According to this article, he may have been racing a SLR:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11488164

But wait, there's more twist to this story, not only he's probably the driver and is denying that because he was under the influence. According to another board, he is a race car driver of Cirtek Motorsport, he raced a Ferrari 360 in the 2005 Le Mans.

At the same the Cirtek Motorsport of Stefan Eriksson pulled off the circuit at the exit of Tertre Rouge with the left rear wheel detached from the car and parked up against the armco a few hundred metres further down the circuit.
Ooops.

So, what's the deal with insurance?? Since he was speeding(illegal), does that let the insurance buttholes off the hook? Or do they still have to pay out

Cause I know up her in Canada, if you wreck your vehicle doing something ILLEGAL, say drunk driving, YOU are solely responsible and there is no insurance $$$!

A detached wheel means he hit something -- likely an armco barrier -- at Le Mans. This guy seems to have a staionary object fixation.

2nd Ferrari accident I saw this month. Last week a different red one speeding down a street (past a school) in my neighborhood, hit the center divider, spun around and ran it backwards into a house. Not too smart.

I'm even more amazed that the driver was a supposed professional race driver. Absolutely unbelievable. He must have really screwed the pooch... the Enzo has all kinds of electronic training wheels to assist the driver. I'm still wondering about him losing it on a stretch that he has to have driven before. And a .09 isn't really enough to cause that kind of brain fart(I'm in no way condoning or trying to lessen the severity of his DUII). Hopefully, there will be a computer re-creation of this accident(so I can start another thread with PWN3d!!! in the title).

Alan06SUT, I believe that there were only 388-400 Enzos produced, with only(maybe) 50-60 coming to the states. This number is rough because there were a few others that were imported and maybe a couple that were exported. I know of 2 Enzos that have already been destroyed here(fire & wreck ).
