The hotter materials are, the easier they catch fire imho. But the one flame from the exhaust pushed inwards by the wind was indeed the spark that started it. Lesson 1: always have a fire extinguisher in your supercar (although now insurance gets him a new one )

I am not sure the car exploding immediately after that initial little flame started was that much of a threat to be honest. By that example, even being parked right behind the car would be equally dangerous so the guy should have backed out of there or something. I don't think the guy was worried about it exploding immediately after the flame started, he was probably too panicked or lazy to go up to the guy to tell him. lol

Haha yes for sure on that one! The first thing I thought was damn this guy is oblivious to all the yelling and horns around him. But he's probably thinking, 'damn they must really like my car'.

Two things that annoy me on the road:
1. Unnecessary revving at a stop. 2. Rolling back, unnecessary use of clutch. |

Too much junk in the trunk or maybe in the driver seat.
That is a racing car not a goofing car, idiots. Most probably the owners manual doesn't come in Arabic. |

Who the fuck does not get out of the car and warn the driver that his shit is on fire? Yeah yeah, it's better to capture it on my iphone than actually DO something.

The driver wasn't an Arab. It was a female from Pennsylvania who was driving a rental.
http://www.maxim.com/cars/supercars/...s-smoke-2015-9 But I would bet that owner's manuals do come in Arabic too given that those oil rich countries are big buyers of these cars. Last edited by five3three; 10-09-2015 at 07:29 AM.. |

Now that it appears that it was a rental, I hope that bitch gets stuck with the whole bill and didn't get insurance for being an idiot with something that didn't belong to her. Fucking dumb ass.

Come to think of it they say only 100 of those cars were ever made. I am surprised a rental company was even able to get one. I didn't think Lamborghini would approve of that on such a limited production vehicle.

First thing that comes to mind is rotary cars shooting flames, and this:
