We certainly wouldn't want to be this kid... or his father for that matter!

Does the destruction of a Ferrari constitute justifiable homicide?

News reports are claiming that this incident - that took place in Adelaide - saw the driver walk free from the wreckage. Witnesses claim hearing the car 'zing, zing' as it went past; whatever the hell that means.

By the looks of the damage, we reckon he had to have had some speed on.

This event has been running now for at least five years and never fails to draw a decent gathering of Commodores from all over the East Coast.

Better still, proceeds go to charity!
