An exotic car club outing gone horribly wrong resulted in the destruction of eight Ferraris, a Lamborghini, and a couple of high dollar Mercedes on a Japanese highway over the freshly completed weekend. The story has been picked up by major news outlets all over the world and we’ve got to think that this could be the largest single loss of Ferraris in one wreck on a public road. 

Apparently things went south in a hurry when one of the drivers lost the handle on his Ferrari while taking a corner on the wet highway. After hitting the median barrier, the wayward Ferrari slid back across the highway causing bedlam behind it when drivers landed on the brakes and took evasive manuvers to avoid the sliding car. No word on how they did avoiding the initial crash car, but they did a pretty bad job of avoiding each other! The photos you can see after hitting the link below show the carnage pretty good. The Ferraris range from an old school Testarossa to newish 360s and what look to be 430s.

All we know is that some poor bastard at an insurance company probably wants to jump out a window right about now. Every time his desk phone rings he probably breaks out in flop sweats!

The good news is that no one was seriously injured in the wreckage and the highway was reopened after six hours of cleanup and accident investigation. No word on where the club is heading next, but we suggest you stay the hell off of that road.
