    It's hard to even speculate what happened with the way they are lined up.

    One must have spun causing the others to collapse behind. Shame

    Everyone knowns that Ferrari drivers drive single file at the speed limits obeying all signage on the roads......

    So, someone must have seen them comming and dumped a drum of oil on the roadway to cause this catastrophy.

    Amazing to see so many Ferraris destroyed at once.

    Hopefully no one was seriously injured.

    I'll bet it's a record for most Ferraris involved in the same accident.

    If so, I hope it stands for a long time.

    I read this morning that it was wet ferrari was overtaking on the curve and spun. I to had to take my 355 out for a feel good hug/drive. On the bright side I think the values of 355 just went up a bit right?.lol

    From link above:

    "Some of the cars involved included two Ferrari F430s, two Ferrari 360 Modenas, two Ferrari F355s, a Lamborghini Diablo a Nissan GT-R - and a Toyota Prius hybrid."

    Umm... what's that Toyota doing there?

    I'm glad to hear no one was seriously hurt. This type of news sucks.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say 10mph under the speed limit in the fast lane when the pack of exotics came around a blind corner.

    :p

    You may be entirely right. All parties are at fault, but it goes to show that automatically going under the speed limit isn't always a good thing. And the pack of exotics should have known better than to be zooming around a blind corner (if that was indeed the case).

    Yikes...
