Wow, so painful to see my favorite supercar destroyed like that. But it also impresses me. To see that such a high-speed crash proved not enough to beat the construction and design of the engineers that made that car safe. It shows just how strong that CF monocoque cell is. So, although I condemn the driver for being stupid, I give props to the people at Pagani for building a very safe car.

Good to know they came out unhurt. Hopefully this will be a lesson learned for the both of them about street racing...especially at such high speeds.

Some folks are just born with it Not about how fast, it's about where you hit.

Glancing hit against the side. Not a direct hit. Car still faired quite well.

the part I have the most propblem with here is that he was 28 with a 1.5m Pagani. Goes to show you that money does not buy brains. In most cases rich people like this are the dumbest fucks ever to walk the Earth. Glad he just lost 1.5m but I am not happy it was a Pagani which is one of my top 2 favorite hypercars.
