Lamborghini’s catching fire are as common as Mustangs crashing while leaving cars and coffee events…

Well what did he expect? Lambos are known for having terrible fuel economy.

I can’t tell from the clip if he turns it off. Seems like having the fuel system pressurized isn’t going to help.

Suspected as much, something about the engine running rich.
I’ve seen a few videos now, and another contributing factor is the fact that the exhaust blows out/very near through flammable body panels, unlike the tail pipes of most other cars. >.<

I was trying to get my car started that had been sitting awhile and had a little too much brake cleaner run down a part and catch fire. Got it out with no damage, but still.
Couple months ago I thought I saw some idiot rolling coal on the highway - turns out his truck was just on fire.

I watched a magnesium block VM burn down once. Firefighters just kept it from spreading.
