I'd add cool/cold temperatures as the final ingredient for disaster. Summer tires are crap under those conditions. As much as people laugh, he might have made it with Pilot A/Ss . What a carnage.

I never noticed the engine was mounted so far back...wow!
Did anyone watch the Top Gear special about this car? I remember Clarkson wanting to drive it in the wet, and he was told by the Ferrari engineers "Impossible!". Now we know why |

I'd still take it. That drivetrain would be an incredible hotrod platform.

I thought the exact same thing and I was shocked, a 599 GTO is more like whatever.
