Ferrari and Lamborghini wrecks from around the world

Watch the Ferrari and Lamborghini super cars burn to the ground! These are some of the most expensive vehicles in the world and they are subject to wrecks, fires, and track abuse frequently. Special thanks to SportBilen.se for hosting the video below on Streetfire.net! Now we can all see the footage that often goes unseen. It's not often we see these cars driving down the road, let alone burning and crumpled up. If you feel sick to your stomach after watching the StreetFire.net footage below by SportBilen.se, you must truly love these vehicles. It's great footage, but really sad to see. Feel free to shed a tear and pour out a drink for the fallen brethren gone above. Another one bites the dust as the tow truck pulls away the owner's dream vehicle turned charcoal.

These cars are extremely high performance which typically introduces warmer than normal operation temperatures. The high pressure fuel systems make the fire even worse if a leak should occur. When a super car busts a fuel line, gasoline goes everywhere which leads to instant failure. The fuel's ignition source is most likely the hot manifolds, but can also be faulty electronics or blown engines. Forced induction is also subject to fire more often than natural aspiration due to the high amounts of fuel used to cool the engine combined with high heat of compressing the air. The faster they go, the hotter they burn. If you are going to drive a fast car, make sure you have a fire extinguisher and a great insurance plan!
