What happened to the driver of the Lambo. Was he killed ?
Any passengers ?
looks like a high speed accident

It looks like the driver or whats left of him is covered in blue plastic in the first of the crash pics-

Its a shame people take these exotics out for a speed thrashing which the car is capable of but the driver seldom is. I have never understood why exotics dont have the crash gear to back up the speed capability.

Good thing that you did not post the pictures where you actually could see the driver...those were pretty gruesome pictures...body burned and such...

The 'car' in front of Mr. Jolie's bike is a Tango. Electric car. Only about a meter wide. 1000 lb battery pack.

The only production model. Owned by George Clooney.

Liberal movie freaks.....Clooney

Question: Why do they have to be so ugly? It seems that auto designers believe that small has to = ugly.

Imagine, for example, if the Smart Car looked like a Fiat 500:

Can you imagine how popular they'd be?!

Info on the drivers can be found here.

Actually, they don't have to be ugly. Here is an electric car by a company called Tesla motors at http://www.teslamotors.com/ which was discussed in a number of OT threads recently...The car is a dead sexy two seater that does 0-60 in four freaking seconds and has a range of 250 miles. It charges up in about three hours so you can plug it in over night.

What was that scam back in the '70s? "The Dale" or something??

were there 2 women inside ?

Any more info on that accident ? Couldn't find the OT thread

The title of the thread was something like "another one bites the dust -- gallardo" and should be in one of the first 3 pages because I posted it Mon and I believe it was on page one at some point yesterday.

The body that could be seen looked like a man to me, but it's pretty much impossible to tell really.
