That's A Good Burn

Ferrari Teams Have Their Own Name For Catching On Fire Now

Poor, poor-’Vette can’t seem to live down its recent fires. For two years in a row, Corvette Racing’s No. 4 car has caught on fire during the Roar Before the 24 test day for Daytona. Now even Ferrari folks—people well versed in spontaneous vehicular combustion—are having a chuckle at their expense.

“Don’t pull a Corvette” is the new word of advice, per one Ferrari team representative I spoke with at Daytona.

Man, you know things are rough when Ferrari guys are making fire jokes. Corvette does have a pretty solid record of making up for its testing flambés with wins at Daytona, however, so I’m not sure if the last laugh is really on them.
