Lamborghini Gallardo SE destroyed by fire at the Nürburgring

Just the other day we reported about a Porsche Carrera GT that caught fire at the track in Shanghai, today we have reports of another exotic super car that went up in flames and down in a blaze of glory. The owner of this particular Lamborghini Gallardo wasn’t as fortunate as the Carrera’s, as you can see by the pile of molten metal and general lack of a body. Like the Porsche owner, the incident took place while the owner was pushing his speed machine to the limit on a controlled closed environment, except that on the Nürburgring’s 12.9 mile Nordschleife circuit, the corner workers are spaced a little further apart.

As we can see from the photo the fire was pretty bad and the car is now nearly unrecognizable. We just hope the driver is ok.
