Thanks Dan. Great video. Also with the Galveston news update we now know the
owners name and business. He supposedly is a Lufkin car restorer salvager:
BUT, I have been trying for a month to find out who was driving the Enzo around
and no one knew who he was. I talked today to a friend of mine who is into
Ferraris and is a local leading businessman with lots of both business and car
connections and owns a nearly new Ferrari 430, he never heard of the guy. I
have not been able to find any of the local car people who know who he is or
that have heard of his business. I did pull up his web site and it shows it
located in Lufkin on Hwy 69 North. Link below. Looks like a cheap website
with some real wheeler dealer trying to broker exotic autos. I smell a rat
somewhere.

The video of the actual crash, I guess when you are driving a 1.25 million
dollar car someone is always video taping you.
