Lambo's are known to spit flame if you sit there and rev the motor, I have seen dozens of videos on it and have seen it in person.


knowing this, if you are stupid enough to sit there and rev the motor for no purpose other than to create the flames and listen to the cool sound, WTF do you expect to happen.

Wow owned, the driver was clearly crying on the bridge seeing that car burns to the ground.

That's one really "hot" car.

OR, We're having a fire sale on Lambos!

I wonder if that's covered under warranty.

Och

I've seen Lambos spit a lot of black smoke on acceleration. I wonder how they pass EPA standards.

I would hate to buy a 400K car and watch it go up in flames just because I was having a little fun with it.

seems a lot of douchenozzles driving lambos. So narcissistic, always taking selfies.

poorer people overcompensate with monster trucks, rich people overcompensate with this.

While I hesitate to call this a 'common problem'...there have been a few cases of this happening. and the fire always starts on the driver's side. The lambo board has a lot of theories but nothing concrete. Obviously there is some unburnt gas that's accumulating in that compartment of the engine bay.

Douchie or not...your car shouldn't catch fire because you're revving it at a standstill.

Is this bad of me to find that scene particularly satisfying?

Man that's crazy that other Lamborghini owners are reporting the same thing. I wonder if he modified the exhaust, maybe removing the cat converter??? Looks like from the video its spitting unburnt fuel out the exhaust, which then caught the car on fire.

Car needs an afterburner

Yeah on a car like that I'd definitely be carrying a fire extingusher. Buddy of mine had his cherry 1971 El Camino burn to the ground due to a loose or ruptured fuel line near the carburators(it was a stroked big block with dual quads and a big old scoop sticking out of the hood). Don't know why he didn't have a small fire extinguisher in that car behind the seat or something, that thing was a 800+hp monster that would flow half a gallon of gas through the fuel line every time you romped on it lol.

rxonmymind

LOL. He had the flashers on. Nice of him.

Can I expect it to keep creating flames (if that's considered normal) and making cool sounds?

These rich guys need to try to remember that when you rev a car with that kid of power it creates a lot of heat AND when the car is putting out that kind of of heat output it really should be in motion to keep temps in check. Translation : Stop revving the #$%ing car at standstill like an 11 year old girl who doesn't understand **** about cars, physics, or life
