Video follows below.
An unidentified driver street racing on an open highway in China reaches new heights of public endangerment when he loses control of his $200,000 Lamborghini Gallardo and crashes the exotic vehicle into a concrete divider.
The video clip below, provided by Jalopnik, shows a pack of Lambos involved in a street race. When one driver attempts to overtake another he loses traction and spins out of control into the concrete divider. This is perhaps the inevitable result of an underground trend of exotic street racing in China.
To borrow from an adage of old: Undertakers love overtakers.

So capitalism has arrived in China, I see.
Rich kids destroying expensive toys.
We paid for those cars, folks.
China must be reeling with new challenges.

Posted on January 14, 2012 at 7:48amHere’s what I see – China has nocer roads than the US. Just a decade ago, that would have been a dirt road.
And that’s where American wealth went.

Posted on January 14, 2012 at 12:58am@Blaze…”When one driver attempts to overtake another he loses traction and spins out of control into the concrete divider.”
Clearly the driver of the green Lambo was not trying to overtake the other. He was in the lead when his lane change was challenged by the superior driver in the orange Lambo.
He choked in the manuever and lost.

Posted on January 14, 2012 at 12:18amBack in the early 80′s when I went to night school at University of Houston, I would be downtown in the middle of the night sometimes. There would be Asians driving around looking for a street race. They would challenge me in their compact cars against my Plymouth Duster. Yes, a Duster. I called it Kermit for the ridiculous green color it was painted. I usually won but this story made me recall those nights long ago. And those racing Asians on Louisiana street.

Posted on January 14, 2012 at 10:14amJust so you know, the whole “oriental” thing . . . they prefer “Asian.” Makes no difference to me, and it seems to matter to them, so Asian it is. Unless you’re a frustrated died-in-the-wool bigot insistent on maintaining negative stereotypes for no reason other than your own arrested adolescence.
I think I know which one you’ll choooooo-ooooose.
