Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa after Monterey Historic Race Crash

[TURBOPOE]

*I shutter*

[lcswear19]

id rather see an old race car die on track than sitting in some oil tycoons garage, they were built for the track, its only right for them to die there too

and yes i know this is repairable

[webbyman]

the majority of the value in this car is its chassis number.. Can smash the car up as much as you want - it will always be an economical repair and relatively speaking (in comparison to 12 mill) cheap

[damorj01]

Looks better that way; let other competitors know you don't F*#@ around on the track.

[GabrielDuran1992]

@Kirkconway - you say who cares what the cars worth as long as the driver is ok, but if it was your ass that wrecked it you would be wishing u died in the crash.

[kirkconway]

who cres what its worth,

as long as the guy wasnt hurt is all that matter's.

[YouFreakinTroll]

@kirkconway i do hope you're joking, sir.

[Shegal1535]

that'll buff out...

[Paperairpain]

Good thing Ferrari will still make parts for it.... not going to be cheap but they can do it.

[Sarcasticscum]

No more monkeys jumping on the bed!

[tanjulio]

did you fix it? i wonder if you considered the value of it with/ without restoration by a body shop. I wonder what a collector would think. good luck, and be greatful you didn't die at the corkscrew.

[Mooseboy240]

kiddin me!? that'll buff right out baha

[24AndyMartin]

you can't really fix it now, the panels for this car were beaten by hand by craftsman in Maranello..not slung together by a robot.

[WaiWu]

nothing a roll of ducktape can't fix

[PreludeGundam]

@WaiWu If only officially licensed Ferrari Gaffer Tape® were cheap..

[WaiWu]

@PreludeGundam lol $50,000 per inch xD

[polishSF]

nie takie rzeczy sie wyklepywało.

[mrsparex]

excuse me...

this one had a brake problem....

Could you please get me another Ferrari? Thank you!

[zakipad]

what car insurance company would even cover a 14,000,000$ car?

[Corbon440]

@zakipad

You can get everything insured, there's no premium limit.

[zakipad]

@Corbon440 had no clue, lol

[wmoltke]

Hey Mr. Enzo is gonna kick your stupid ass up in heaven.

[jbernard1234]

that's not a terribly difficult thing to fix, should hit a reputable body/restoration shop and be good as new, could've been much worse...

[ksakbk]

it'll buff out 

[bamboali]

0:56?

[C63AMGestate]

If each part of the car was equally valued, the fender that guy was pulling on is probably worth as much as my house...

[blitxzar]

too bad it didn't get totaled :((((

[chevyslick]

pretty cheap fix

[dwiggs77]

that shit will buff out

[RoddyDalPonte]

Total bad trip

[OK8888]

if the panel would've broken off by that blue collar guy tugging it, he would've been i biiigg trouuble

[scheese]

OK the fender is not rubbing now. Lets get back out there. just glad is was not smashed too bad. These are just character marks.

[aaronjohnmaughan]

In it's day, this car would still be on the track with damage like that. It's just a scuff!

[Ratava252]

Yup. Tugging on that delicate body is good for the car.

[pezsez2]

well lot of cutting, welding, fabricating, rolling pounding, bondo sanding and paint

i can fix it it will only take a few months lol ITS STILL FIX ABLE

[doubletap85]

I'd rather see the car out on the track and getting a little dinged up, than locked away i a garage where nobody can enjoy it.

[Juano182]

i'll look for it on copart

[jeepers2655]

naaaaa,it`ll buff out!

[lolahavasuaz]

why would some numb nut's "Fu*k" head idiot driving a irreplaceable piece of automotive history push his skills playing russian roulette through one of THE most technical sections of L-Seca ... the cork screw. LOL if they hired the driver to ruin the owners car & LOL even harder if it was driven by the owner ... Historic racing is for enjoyment , not being 1st to crash a vehicle , who cares if you only finnished 6th or 7th ... even "IF" I could , $ $ $ $ whoever drove car needs a NUT SACK KICK

[martidm]

John Daly works on a tow truck??????

[cw147]

he should just go down to the local scrap yard and pick up a new panel for $20

[jchevymannz]

@cw147 this is a 1957 ferrari mate not a ford mondeo it would probably cost 20,000 to get a panel for that car

[martidm]

the fat guy was trying to free a Twinkie lodged in the wheel well.

[xinugm]

what a no driving mother fucker

[818arthur]

some paint a headlight no big deal

[Stealthsoldier20]

Ok, who let the new guy drive?

[Sephirius]

Ironically this same car was totaled at Laguna Seca in 1960, in a similar incident at turn 5, rather than the corkscrew. It was far more damaged than this after that incident, and it was back racing less than a year later! Rebuild and Race- That's what Enzo would want.

[jp2691]

Wtf at the guy trying to pull the damage out. You can't fix that with your bare hands moron.

[urna55]

@jp2691 He's trying to pull the fender away from the tire genius.

[him89]

I will say the damage isn't as bad as I thought it was watching the crash, granted it will be a bitch to fix. A lot of time and a lot of money. I'd imagine that Love will race it just as much if not more after fixing it. Maybe he'll be a little more careful about it too.

[sdogeasley]

new parts thats a one piece body on that car what are u going to do go to autozone and ask them if they have a replacement fuckin mooks that car even fixed just depreciated in value by 75% ferrari would kick ur ass if u called them and u said u wrecked 1 of 40 of these cars 12 million dollar paper wieght thats all its worth now

[wreaksrevenge]

if you can afford to own it you can afford to crash it

[tibendunord]

Rouler comme un gland, ca n'a pas de prix... Pour le reste, il y a EuroCard - Master Card

[sigurd1979]

You could probably get the new parts made out of carbon fiber for cheaper than original parts at a guess. Are there even reproduction parts out there for one of these?

[Ferrari328gtsi]

Yah right. Originality is what makes the car valuable. This car will be rebuilt using the original aluminum using a hammer and English wheel. Carbon fiber . . . sheer bosh! It's a $12 million dollar car and you suggest the owner looker for cheap replacement parts. Hilarious. But, I agree with you. You definitely could find cheaper replacement parts.

[ArizonaChillin]

@sigurd1979 Seriously the dumbest question ever......seriously!

[ArizonaChillin]

@sigurd1979 your so dumb

[F1GHTERS]

man i saw this it was pretty bad to watch

[bradgotch]

easy fix. no biggy.

[sigurd1979]

Really? you try finding the parts to an ultra rare early 60's Ferrari.

[roundpeach420]

you call Ferrari and tell them to fucking fix it

[sigurd1979]

Yeah good luck with that.

[stepxunit]

rofl.. people say tragedy... its mainly body damage.. fix it up and blah..

the cars worth 9 mill.. soo >__>

[SkotisTeamBastards]

what did he do to her :(

[fi7thy]

The car in that condition is still worth enough to trade in for a McLaren F1, and a garageful of Lamborghinis. :D

[SuperCarsSpotter]

@fi7thy But honestly, who would trade a Ferrari for a Lamborghini?!

[mig8686]

@fi7thy At least i know i would haha

[db10001110101]

@fi7thy yEa, but eventually the garage full of lambos wont be worth anywhere near what you paid for them and by then the Ferrari would have doubled in value.

[turbostar420]

yea  rite wyo550,thats why i always wear my driving hat and my driving watch

[wyo550]

His new driving shoe caught on the accelerator pedal and he couldn't lift it off to brake at the top of turn 8.

[lastelement21]

Watched it happen in person, what a tragedy

[Sargazm]

bah! fix it go race it again that was what it was built for

[reproduktsioon]

@Sargazm that's a man's talk!

[Sargazm]

@reproduktsioon Bang back in the game NICE!!

t

[Sargazm]

@reproduktsioon thechicaneblog com david loves ferrari250 testa rossa

[solo2z06]

It has probably seen worse then this if it was a real race car.

[Nikateer]

insurance fraud if u ask me. he probably crashed it on purpose.
