    Maybe this is the start of Ferrari's ORV program. Next year, they'll be dominating the rally circuit. #ferraricalifornia

    It's not a crash if there was no physical contact with another object. This was a spinout.

    I wish I could get Massa and Alonso to give me a push when I need one. Do you have any idea how expensive FIAT starters are? #ferraricalifornia

    I am confused.

    He waves at the crowd.
    He turns forward and looks straight at the track.
    He gently turns the wheel and steers the car into the gravel...

    He did it on purpose?

    As dumb as it was, "Vanishing Point" did it better. Kowalski had a purpose in destroying himself and his car, this numbnuts simply fell victim to the universe.

    Here's a thought - let's let all the Ferraris get trashed. Stick with me, I have a point.

    You know Marty tells David in Spinal Tap they could simply raise the scale of their amps and have the new highest setting still be ten? "But these go to eleven."

    How now if we eliminate all Ferraris, draw a new scale just a bit smaller, and let all the Porsches be the new ten? "But these go to nine."

    Moot issue of course, we'd still have Veyrons and Lamborghinis to contend with. Never mind, carry on!

    It's a twofer. First the trailing car hit a minivan in its rear quarter, then the loader.

    What I know about Bulgaria comes from a mid-fifties Graham Greene report on Albania, that he did for the New Yorker. I thought it was important that you know this. #ferraricalifornia

    @Mr.choppers - Delenda Carthago Est: Don't think so, this seems rather even handed and far less humorous.

    But, my, don't we know our Albanian travel literature?

    @Van Sarockin, rogue trebuchet: Yes. For further readings I suggest Edith Durham's "High Albania". Raymond Carver's "Accrsed Mountains" is arather hateful book but still a good read. Any of Ismaïl Kadaré's novels are definitely worth reading.

    (Wrote senior thesis on "Balkanism"...) #ferraricalifornia

    @Van Sarockin, rogue trebuchet: Two Albanians in prison are chatting. One asks the other:

    -How long is your sentence?
    -Ten years.
    -What did you do?
    -Nothing.
    -You're lying! "Nothing" only gets you five years, and you know it. #ferraricalifornia

    The sentiment is in the right spot, but "Save the Super Cars" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

    "Preserve Our Flamboyant Exotica"
