Bryan said it was TT. Any word on the manufacturer? No car should catch flames like this.

 

Has a huge Underground Racing sticker on the rocker panel.

How does insurance work in a situation like this? Assume you would have to inform them that the car is TT and have a stated value policy? If you had a regular policy and did not inform them it was TT would they cover the replacement of the base vehicle or would you be SOL?

There are also some scary disclaimers and rules on collector car policies. They have many disclaimers to keep costs down. I would check your policy carefully if you do any major modifications or special events.

 

I always get annoyed by that stupid Liberty Mutual Insurance commercial. "Did you read you whole insurance policy?".... yes I did you idiot! I recommend everyone give their policy a looking over at least once.

horrible to see this. did they figure out what started the fire?

 

Nothing they saw that's obvious, fire started in front of the right rear tire area I was told. Nothing is modified in that area. That is where the gas fill neck is. Form here I believe the insurance company will hire a forensic fire investigator to determine what happened. It will prob be a while before that happens and we hear anything.

 

There was another Lambo that caught fire at the bull run. I was told it was stock. Anyone hear anything about that one? Fires suck.

interested to hear the reasoning behind this.

rumor is the other Lambo was a white countach at the track that was doing laps when this happen. (not sure if this is accurate)

Damn. How quick were they able to put it out

I heard people were running over with fire extinguisher's as soon as it happen. I'm sure Bryan and Fikse can tell us more.
