911 GT2 RS And Huayra BC Collide In Painfully Expensive Track Day Crash
What we have here is a prime candidate for the unenviable award of ‘most expensive track day crash ever’. In the video, shot during a recent event at Monza circuit, we see a Porsche 911 GT2 RS smash into the side of a Pagani Huayra BC. The BC being a car that costs £1.8 million.
The impact was so severe, it forced the Huayra’s passenger door to spring open. The 911, meanwhile, had its front-left pretty much destroyed. The aftermath pictures aren’t what you’d call pretty. If you’d like to find a quiet place to have a little cry, we don’t blame you.
The accident happened on the Variante del Rettifilo - a tight chicane at the end of the start-finish straight. Admittedly, the Pagani wasn’t going all that fast, but as this was a track day and not a race, the driver is perfectly entitled to do so.
It’s hard to tell if the Porsche driver was either caught out by the slow speed of the Huayra or if they were intending to overtake on the corner - a big no-no at this kind of event - and misjudged. Given the pace being carried into the chicane, you have to wonder if the GT2 RS would have even made the corner had the Pagani not been there.
Thankfully, both drivers were said to be OK following the contact.

I’m glad everyone at that scene is perfectly fine, and it was scary to look at considering the Pagani’s door flew open. With all that said, RIP to 2 beautiful machines…
Yep, RIP to those beautiful pieces of automotive craftsmanship…
Yeah something like this should not happen under sny circumstances! As a pagani costumer i would be highly pissed
Lol that’s for safety reason tho. It’s in the case of a roll over or the car door being wedged into the wall then the door would be open so you can get out and now be trapped
Yep, that’s one expensive wreck
I can’t blame the driver for this. At least he was responsible enough to race his car at a racetrack… Sad for such a loss :(
mfw the pic won’t load so I don’t have to see the aftermath pics, therefore not ruining my day

Not even IRL you can escape the monza T1 punt.

A crash where nobody cares about the GT2 RS
That was actually funny but looks like other people here don’t have a sense of humor lol
