Speachless....5-6 seconds of exuberance/poor judgement can place you at lethal speeds...and I bet these two didn't even know each other....let alone their respective driving skill or how much alcohol was involved. Don't involve nonparticipants or play with people you don't know...and of course best done on the track. I care about you guys...be safe.

What is it with Ferrari's and splitting in two in crashes?
They are beautiful cars but what about safety?
I suppose though when you hit a large pole at speed not many cars will protect you in that sort of crash.
Sad to say but really if you can afford these sorts of cars you should have the common sense to drive them fast in a safe environment i.e not the street!

Man that's awful. Not sure what this has to do with a 996TT/GT2, but horrible anyway.

OMFG! This is horrible.... I just heard about this and can't believe it. Regardless of the circumstance and ethics... Some one and maybe another has lost their life. Met the guy a few times and he was real cool. R.I.P Mask....
