Just because a person CAN own such a car, doesn't mean they should. Getting tired of seeing this stuff, joe rich boy buys a Lambo and just because he can afford one one he automatically assumes that he is a trained race driver.

That's called a 'real' bad day at the track. Looks like something had to have snapped or gone wrong by the tire tracks - looks like he went off the track sideways all the way to that retainer wall.

Prolly shouldn't go off about someone with a nice car not knowing how to drive, professional drivers wreck all the time, on closed timed courses with no one around them, much less your weekend track warriors all circling at once with a variety of cars around them. Not unless you 'know' for sure they suck at driving.. [:D]

Tough corner! It looks like the hill crests (in the upper left corner of the third photo down) and then there's a quick left right s-curve exactly when your downforce is at its lowest. Judging by the number of other skid marks around the Lambo's fresh tracks, it looks like a lot of guys make the same mistake (photo 4).... which makes me wonder what idiot put a giant concrete wall in the middle of an open field?!?!?!?!?

I'm sorry, but this kind of attitude shits me. If anything, the fact that he's binned it suggests to me that he's at least attempting to use his car properly. People make mistakes all the time, it's just that some people make mistakes in really expensive cars, and it's these pics that are splashed all over the internet. I mean, who really gives a shit if someone has stacked their Ford Mondeo?

At least the guy is DRIVING his Lambo for God's sake, lets not take that away from him.

Well, at least I hope he had insurance that would cover any accidents while racing the car on a track! If not, then he's screwed!

Are you kidding? Anyone who can afford to buy ANY super car no doubt has enough money to buy another. Those rear tires are probably $1,000/piece if not more. I remember reading in autoweek a few years ago that a new exhaust for a Diablo is over $17,000. [ohcrap]

Blah blah blah, at least he was on a track. I'm sure Diablo owner had NO idea this was going to happen to his car. It's just a machine and it's his car so he can shove that car up his ass if it floats his boat.
