    Anyone notice what the engine cover did once the rope began to pull on it? The cover separated at least 3/4". Poor car has a disrespectful owner. Shameful

    Who cares? They're having fun and living life! It's THIER car and they can do whatever they want with it. (Maybe its owned by their father who obviously doesn't care) People that are upset over this need to get a life. Engine cover gap...like your ever going to buy this car? Worn clutch...they'll have it replaced without any worry.

    Yes, I agree - how disgusting & horrible it must be to actually have fun with your Ferrari. They should be kept in the garage and only driven mildly, if ever.

    There many videos of these guys on the internet intended to shock people. Full throttle through the mud, donuts in stone pits, stupid clutch dumps, etc.

    With cars that rare its disappointing that the "harmless fun" (in my eyes disrespect) won't matter a hill of beans to the next owner... because there's ten more guys lining up to buy the car if you don't. Kinda like a 22 year old super model who's had an STD in the past. Get all judgmental and say what you want.. guys are still going to line up..

    Kind of makes it ridiculous when selling a 'production car' that people are worried about...

    track time
    paint work
    rain
    miles
    etc, etc, etc

    The tax the rich guys obviously have the money to maintain and repair these cars, all in good fun. I'd rather see this than an F50 which never sees the light of day and still has delivery miles.

    I would have tied it off somewhere but the spoiler. I'm surprised it held without a lot of damage

    It's designed to create downforce and is very strong. He lives in Norfolk, England and has done a fair few things such as this. His car, his choice....
