We've nearly come to the end of the 20th season of Top Gear, but don't get sad, the british chaps are already working for the 21th season since they have been spotted in Italy while filming a new episode.

BRUTAL Lamborghini Crash



Do you remember the pictures I have posted on my Facebook regarding the Lamborghini LP570-4 SuperTrofeo crashed a Monza? Ok, now we have several videos from different points of view of the crash, and damn, that was a brutal accident! The car lost the control in the Ascari chicane and slammed into the barriers, finally we have the confirm that the driver didn't reported injuries, it's pretty impressive to see this accident from the onboard camera.

Monza's most challenging chicane claims another car. During the Speed Day trackday event held yesterday, a Ford Focus RS loses grip on the rear tires while driving out the Ascari chicane and crashes into the barriers.

Porsche 997 GT3 RS Close Call!



Monza, the temple of speed. It's one of the fastest racetracks in the world and in the main straight the supercars can reach up to 300km/h, so if you're planning to drive here, make sure that your car has really good brakes. It's not the case of this Mitsubishi Colt that at the end of the main straight comes like a bullet and nearly crashes into a Porsche 997 GT3 RS because it had no more braking power. A truly scary moment!

Terrible Mitsubishi EVO accident

Racing is always dangerous, and in this case it could have ended really, really bad. During a Speed Day trackday event at Monza held last Sunday, a Mitsubishi EVO 9 has crashed at high speed in the trickiest part of the track, the Ascari chicane. In the car there were two passengers with the driver, they have reported bruises and fractures, we can say a very light result for their wealth, considering that the car has been totally crashed (including the chassis) and none of them were wearing a safety helmet.

Ferrari Enzo flooring it


With the right exhaust, the Ferrari Enzo is an insane sounding hypercar. This very rare Enzo finished in Argento Nürburgring has been fitted with a completely straight exhaust system and has been filmed by my friend and spotter NM2255 while blasting in the tunnel of Monza racetrack, leaving a brutal exhaust note!

Charity Auctions for Emilia Romagna

As you remember, back in May of this year, a series of brutal earthquakes have caused a lot of damages and also casualties in the Emilia Romagna region, the place where the magic happens, where you can find some of the best automotive factories such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati and Pagani.

The weekend of the italian F1 GP, Ferrari has given to Google executive Benjamin Slossag the keys to his brand new Ferrari 599XX sold for an incredible price tag of 1.4m €. The proceeds from this car and other items sold at the charity auction have been donated to the victims of the earthquake.


But it's not over, the funds for this amazing region keep coming through charity car events held all around Italy, and also thanks to Mclaren that has decided to sell on Ebay the racing suits used by Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton during the italian F1 GP held at Monza. The proceeds will be donated to an hospital and a school for disabled children. Are you a crazy Mclaren fan and want to make a good deed? Here the links to the auctions:

Ferrari 599XX and FXX shakedown

A few days ago took place in the temple of speed, Monza, the only italian edition of the 2012 season of the Ferrari Corse Clienti that involved the XX Programmes, featuring the Ferrari 599XX, FXX and their EVO editions. So, I couldn't miss this unique opportunity to see and hear in person these fantastic machines. The day was divided in track sessions followed by telemetry sessions, so after you were on track you were able to check out with Ferrari technicians in pitlane your results and it was an opportunity to improve your skills on the fast italian circuit. Monza is located in a fascinating location, inside a huge park in the city, when the cars were driving it was really possible to hear an unbelievable soundtrack from every point of the track, or even in the city nearby.

Here below you can check out some pics and videos made by me and a friend of mine.

Spada Codatronca Monza - 720bhp New Supercar

This is my new video about the Spada Codatronca Monza, a supercar built with italian passion and american heart. The car is made by italian company Spada but it's based on the Corvette Z06. The engine is a 7.0L V8 producing the incredible amount of 720bhp and 920nm, that's enough for moving it from 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 3s and a top speed of 340 km/h. The car has been presented in April 2011 during the Top Marques Monaco show. Actually, this is the only one in the world and it could be yours for 200k euros.

900th video - A dream ride with Valentino Balboni

First of all, i want to say thanks to everyone who support my channel, i can't believe this is my 900th video uploaded to YouTube! That's a huge amount of videos and effort i put to create content in over 5 years.
For my 900th video i really wanted to take a special video, last weekend i went to Monza and as i saw Valentino i  have not hesitated to propose him to take a video with him. Valentino is such a kind and open man, it was very exciting and unbelievable for me to sit next to him in a Lambo!




It has been for sure one of the most special ride i have ever had on a supercar, thanks Valentino for the special day i spent on track with you!!

I was also very lucky because a friend of mine took a picture while Valentino was on track, he caught the right moment when i was inside with him, that's a nice souvenir photo for the day :)

                               Picture was taken by my friend and youtuber 19Bozzy92!

Supercars, Exotics and... ricers

The video was taken at the tunnel exit of the Monza racetrack. In Monza there's a series of events called SpeedDay. At the end of every SpeedDay trackday event there's always a crowd of people screaming and telling them to show off with their cars. Most of them love to be filmed and applauded to the point to burn the tires or the cluth of their cars!
