Ah man, that sucks. That was the guy who let car magazines use his car for road tests when Ferrari wouldn't!

i am curious what you would have to do to actually roll an enzo.

i would think it would have to be something rather extreme.

Well i am guessing all you need to do is attack a corner at 100 mph.

Maybe he was trying to drift it =P

Hmm, according to the news reports, he was going thru a slight corner with a small incline at 100mph which leads me to believe that the car either understeered (weight transfer from front to rear causing front tires to loose traction) or the corner was off-camber and with the small include could've caused the car to loose lateral traction. But that's just me... :P
