5. When Playing A Gig One Night. . .

. . .our guitar player came running in from the lot saying there was a car on fire. I went to the mike to tell people they may want to move their cars if it was safe.

Bar owner called FD. Two of our guys ran out with fire extinguishers, but it was too far gone.

The type of car: Chevy BLAZER!

12. The dirty secret is some high price exotics are meant to be driven hard

While others are meant to be stared at in a heated garage like works of art -- The only thing these are good for are driving at low revs to the country club once a month, where the owner can endlessly recite his car's performance stats from "Motor Trend" to his golf foursome...

FWIW, the comments seem to indicate that this Lambo was a rental... If that's true, then I promise you that poor girl has been mercilessly abused all day every day in Dubai, and had nonexistent maintenance/amateur repairs...

She has gone to a better place...She was too good for this evil, heartless world...
