McLaren Crash at $99 Ride and Drive

- This happened a few years ago on a $99 driving experience. The customer piloting the McLaren shouldn't have a license, and the instructor in the passenger seat got lazy or shouldn't have been an instructor. Either way add everything up and you have a practically totaled McLaren 12C in a parking lot.

Today Mr Spaghetti shows us a Mclaren crashing, tells us it was the instructors fault (he really sucked), and comes to the conclusion that this was his most expensive video so far.
statesidesupercars Today Mr Spaghetti pins the statesidesupercars in the comment section
being hateful towards someone that's more successful than you is pathetic AF.go back to your channel that has no substance whatsoever
Kenneth Wilburn dawg I was talking about statesidesupercars chill
Joshua Killingsworth that is how you build business bro haha you're not going to succeed in life if you don't know that 😳
truth hurts.
One hand on the wheel??!?!!
Mostly see one handed drivers driving riced out Civic with the seat all the way back with one hand on the wheel.
I was fixated on that the entire time. It's hard to believe haha
sanosuke2999
Most of us do it on the street. Not gangsta 12'oclock but probably 8 or 6.
Doing this while driving inspired is so foolish though.
I do this because I don't drive on the highway and got a manual so it's easier to rest my hand on the stick
Inenting little do you know youre hurting your transmission by having your hand on the shift knob. and your statement makes no sense. i drive one handed on the freeway but when i get into town its both hands on the wheel because youre in a smaller area with constant speed changed and dumb ass people.
Driving someone else's McLaren as if he were on a straight country road in an old pickup.
Missing beer and mandatory truck gun
And today Rod shows us why you shouldn't let people drive a 12c for $99
Jimmy Grant if your inssured for it who gives a shit! lol
rehab joe buffet the car is never right again, insurance issues and may not make u whole so your out of pocket or your hurt or dead. there's a few reasons
rehab joe buffet The lease company?
youth in Oregon
Jimmy Grant that's actually a 650S
[crashes McLaren]
"that is not good"
"no it's not"
Ouch! Terrible driver and even worse instructor..
After the wicked under-steer just prior you'd think the instructor would wake up a little. The fact that the instructor said floor it so many times makes it 100% the instructors fault IMO. The acceleration alone would be overwhelming to most (member of the 200hp or less club here). This driver clearly had little idea how to drive properly and listened to the instructor implicitly despite not having the skill/experience to keep up with it.
Driving with one hand and leaned way too far back for performance driving.
Mostly see one handed drivers driving riced out Civic with the seat all the way back with one hand on the wheel.
You already commented that sanosuke.
Tatar 21 I am certain it was original the first time!
leaned way too far back? obviously youve never been in a supercar, the acceleration pushes you all the way in the seat and you are firmly strapped in anyway, visibilty is often comprimised but when you do 300 plus on straights and come down to enter braking you want to be tightly up in the seat
MacAlert I have a feeling that's just the fisheye.
one handed steering is fine on the street, but as Rob said it's terrible to do it on the track but he should have been told that. I agree with Rob when he says it is the instructor's fault.
**Clicks on video, wondering how on earth it could have happened**
**Sees 1 second into the video the guy holding the wheel with one hand**
Well I know where this is going...
Figureight hi Figure eight:)
Sup lex
Why the hell would you drive a performance car in a circuit with one hand?!
Don't blame the driver, blame the instructor. That's why somebody goes to instructor so they can learn how to drive.
Keyboarding if you at least are interested in car you should know that racing with one hand is stupid
MrEujoo Being an instructor, he should treat every one like they've never driven a car for racing.
MrEujoo especially with such an expensive car. You don't take chances like that.
Keyboarding exactly
Instructor fired?
Reenactor Guy I hope so
80% chance of yes!! 🤣🤣 Instructor should've told the guy to stop driving a like a cool 12 year old.
Oh look, it's the instructor!
Instructors don't get "fired" per se, since we are contractors most of the time and earn a flat day rate. We call it "not invited back".
He was most certainly not invited back.
and deported
He doesn't know how to drive with 2 hands so 20% of driver fault but to me 100% of driver instructor fault.
GamingGotRacing I don't think that's how percentages work lol
think hes saying the community might put a small blame on the driver for driving one handed but he wouldnt and put all the blame on the instructor.
Ze Germanz whos to say who is corect bro! two guys with equal opinions! thats like fifty fifty one man! totaly even playing field! only Allah can truly understand the outcome bra!
GamingGotRacing that's 120 percent
I agree with you 120% there
Driving a 12C one-handed. On a course designed to experiences a performance car's capability..... moron.
I hardly even drive highway with one hand, unless I have to change gear, and my car has half the horsepower of that thing. Take a fairly well-balanced car (even a slow one) with a neglected front suspension down a twisty but rough road and you'll understand why being able to control the car at all times is important. You see people these days buying and driving supercars that would have a hard time maintaining traction on a slightly moistened go-kart track with a 12hp Briggs under their throttle just because cars have so many mandated electro-nannies they think the car will save them from themselves if they need it. Guess that's why Dodge gives away a track training session with every SRT car they sell nowadays (even if practically nobody uses it).
I don't have full use of my right hand, and I still drive with both hands on the wheel...
He seriously wasn't thinking.
I know it's saved my ass more than a few times at highway speeds and the back end steps out for whatever reason ....I mighta been twitching all-over trying to feel it in but Ive kept it from hitting anything or anyone.
And besides , you can feel what the car is doing when you're 2 handed
Floor it floor it. it's the cars last chance haha
Well technically it was.
100k for going over a 3 inch curb. damn.
Its not designed for that.
Oh I get that. It wasn't a bash against the car or it's design. It's just a shocking number to think about for what could be a simple mistake on the street.
I routinely drive over a 3" curb, by mistake, at my local ATM. Sidewall lugs FTW...
...but she's not setting any speed records.
Maxwelhse I drove over a 3-inch curb in a Mazda MX-5. long story. ended up costing 17200
Isn't that damn near what a nearly new MX-5 costs?
Looks like Prius driver on a Sunday afternoon driving that car....just needed the Starbucks cup in the empty hand..
Guy Mooglie In the left lane
I did a $400 one of these with an F430 Scuderia through Fittibaldi Exotic Driving at MSR near Houston. My instructor was doing the whole "floor it, floor it" thing, but not only was he wearing a helmet and ensure that I was driving with two hands, but indeed he policed where my hands sat on the wheel.
Also, I didn't even know how fast I was driving until I got home and looked at the gopro footage. You're right, it was a comedy of errors on both parts.
5 things I hate about $99 exotic rides.
Dude is driving like he's about to do a drive-by.
Colored like he is too
@@Alexander_l322hey that's pretty racist.
@@steviepurcell7051 it's not pretty racist. It is racist.
That was painful to watch
mezimeen painfully orgasmic.... the crash part not the talking...ok maby some of the talking!
whos eatting that 100k loss?? rob? instructor? driver?
Insurance
Insurance co
If the driver purchased insurance for the car (generally a couple hundred dollars for the drive) the insurance company will cover it. If he only spent $99 on the package though, I seriously doubt he is also paying the extra for insurance. If he didn't purchase insurance, he is liable for the damages.
No company puts their car in jeopardy relying on the driver to buy the appropriate insurance. The car is too expensive to take that risk. The driver may only have to pay for the deductible if any.
Mostly Insurance. Rob's rates may go up slightly and he will have to ether eat the small increase or increase prices, which would put some of the burden on consumers. Also anyone who uses this insurance company is ultimately effected by the loss in a minuscule way. The instructor is in for a big loss opportunity wise as this is now associated with him and his brand.
You know what Rob? You seem to be great person to be friends with
Thanks!
imagine all the stupid shit he can talk you out of because most people are too stupid to think for themselves
superspeedersRob hey Rob i know this is painful but if this crash will skyrocket your insurance you're better off scraping the car for parts.Because if they go Up you're risking all your business and will percieve less profit on the future.
warmfreeze was on private land, I wouldn't have thought insurance would be involved unless they got sued
Next Video: Turns out I'm selling my NSX after all because I need the money
Team Shmo He definitely doesn't need the money, he has money.
tells him to floor it but doesnt tell him to brake lol doesnt tell him to put both hands on the wheel either. driving instructor should be fired and driver should have his license revoked.
3:10 do you even stance bro?
Today rob loses a lot of money and a driving instructor loses their job
"ALL STATE" you're in good hands ✋🏾😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
soooo the snow miata.... we got quite a bit of snow, where it at tho
Very good! As a retired Patrol driving instructor, you have to watch EVERYTHING your student is doing. No room for error.
I guess that the instructor is most likely doing the UBER thing now !
Dude one handed the steering wheel like he was driving his clapped out honda 🤣
Maybe someone left a tube of Tiege Hanley face wash on the track
0% fault of the driver. The instructor's ONLY job is there to protect the diver and the car. He FAILED.
Does he not know that a noob can afford $100 to put his arse in that car?
Look
If you had
One shot
Or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
In one moment
Would you capture it
Or just let it slip?
Yo
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, ROB spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now
The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow!
Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No
He won't have it, he knows his whole back city's ropes
It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows, when he goes back to his mobile home, that's when its
Back to the lab again yo, this whole rhapsody
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
The souls escaping, through this hole that its gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is borin', but super stardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows us all over these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
His hoes don't want him no mo, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmo who flows, he nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes on
Da da dumb da dumb da da
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
No more games, I'm a change what you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin' and stepwritin' the next cipher
Best believe somebody's payin' the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the
Fact that I can't get by with my nine to
Five and I can't provide the right type of
Life for my family 'cause man, these God damn food stamps don't buy diapers
And its no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer
This is my life and these times are so hard
And it's getting even harder tryin' to feed and water my seed, plus
See dishonor caught up between bein' a father and a prima-donna
Baby mama drama screamin' on and too much
For me to want to say in one spot, another jam or not
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail I've got
To formulate a plot fore I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motherfuckin' option, failures not
Mom, I love you, but this trail has got to go, I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go is my shot
Feet fail me not 'cause maybe the only opportunity that I got
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
thechum you literally replaced two words in the entire lyrics
1 word
Sorry for the bad news but learned something jus by u sharing this, so bitter sweet for both parties
I Hope you fired that DESTRUCTOR...I mean...INSTRUCTOR !! 🤦🏼♂️
Rob Ferret is a professional F1 race car driver now!
Too much Initial D, Dr. Toshiya Joushima is not impress ... you failed, sir.
Zeke I thought the same damn thing
That driving instructor is a master of understatement.
is he owning a mustang by any chance? JK
Rob, I am so glad that you noted the driver's hands right off the bat. I was screaming it in the first part of the video. Hooking your thumb in the wheel is also a great way to get it broken. Thanks for the videos!
Rip
all that time I thought the driver with one hand was coming out of the off ramp heading towards the track.
I honestly didn't even realise they were on the track untill the accident.
amazing.
$125,000 repair?? mp4s can be bought for that cheap....
Dan Sasala you've never repaired a car before, have you?
Yeah in a Video Game maybe. They're 270k+ (206k U.S.) here in Canada.

Now please take this L
Accident was almost 3 years ago, car was more valuable then.
superspeedersRob Whats the story here? Was that your car? I find it hard to believe someone would lend such an expensive car to either an uninsured driver or an uninsured driving instructor/company who offered joy rides. Unless this was just a very expensive lesson?
I had a great instructor at the track at Vegas. I am a confident driver with a good amount of both real and simulated (full racing rig) racing, so I effectively know the ins and outs, and just need to seat time to get great laps. Regardless, we went out in the Cayman S, and that car was super easy, no problem. The Aventador on the other hand, my instructor was good enough (and recognized my abilities to read and navigate racing lines) that he had me push the car around corners harder than I would have done on my own, at least for another 20 or so laps. On a tight right hander, he was able to direct me to counter the understeer, which felt different than my experiences in FWD cars regarding understeer. Same basic principles, but that AWD system in the Aventador relies on constant control of balance, otherwise the understeer is ridiculous (and I'm sure oversteer is a real thing in extreme cases too). Either way, I was lucky to have a good instructor who pushed me harder than I though I could go that early on, with zero issues and lots of fun.
My experience in the Elise in Cancun on the other hand, that guy wouldn't let me rev past 6000rpm on the straights. Let me tell you, for a car rated with a 4.9s 0-60, and an engine that is only powerful up top, made for a slow time. On top of that he just let me drive and never got me to push it harder, not like in Vegas. BORING.
Rob even though you're not making hour long videos I am grateful beyond words that you go out of your way to do so
I like your videos, and how sensible you are about cars, you know what you are talking about clearly! Some guys just "shout" so much doing their reviews that they forget about what is the video about. Tanks
When I took the Counter Terrorism Evasive Driving Course my instructor would literally Rick Flair slap me every time I made a mistake lol
C a humble bragging instructor would do even worse
WHOOOOOOO!!!
Poor guys....
In the end. .. there can be only one. ..
I would love the opportunity to train all three of you guys. Rob. The driver. And. The passanger/instructor.
Much appreciated. Truly a healthy bussines outlook on things.
"Hey you see that curb coming up in (what I can only estimate to be about) 500 feet? Yeah, _floor it floor it floor it_!"
The summary people give about rob is so fucking hilarious 😂😂😂
Mr. Robert Spaghetti basically telling us to be careful driving with an instructor because not all instructors know what they are doing.
First thing I noticed was the one hand driving and how awkward the turn was too. You can just see how his arm is basically locked up when he turns and can barely do anything if he loses control or crashes in the front of the vehicle.
This is a great video man. I'm impressed you can put out this many interesting videos a week haha.
I did one of these Gotham cars $99 deals once. Got a Lamborghini. It felt like it wasn’t at full power. Like it was limited so you couldn’t hurt yourself or their car. I too had it floored on the final straight run and wondered why it wasn’t pinning me to the seat.
Either way, it was well worth the price and I had a great time. Highly recommend it!
you know Rob spaghetti was pissed as hell but put a brave face on for the camera lol
As an autocross nerd who's witnessed similar incidents, I would also point to course layout as a possible exacerbating factor. I know, for example that the infamous Eddie Griffin Enzo crash would have been easily preventable with a change in layout to not put a jersey barrier right outside of a tight turn following a fast section. We can't really see the course layout from the video, but I'd be curious if that was a factor, or if this guy ended up WAY off course in order to hit something.
The sanctioning body I run with most has very experienced course designers, and while accidents still occasionally happen (you can't out-design stupid) it's an incredibly low rate / vehicle runs attempted.
What was the drivers financial responsibility? The instructors?
Target fixation. Something I was taught never to do. And something I found out what happens if you do on a motorcycle when track riding. Didn't crash (knocking on wood for future track days), but nearly ended up in the forest on 1 occasion, and the other with a new pair of boxers.
Was this one of your rental cars?
Sorry if this question is to personal. But who pays for the damaged parts, is it the costumer or you guys have insurance that covers it all? Would really appreciate it.
I don't like that Superspeeders Rob won't let you skip the video.
skip what video? the ad at the start? I don't think they have control over that youtube decides on a video by video basis whether to give you a skippable ad or not and that depends on the type of content in the video as well as the personalisation algorithm that takes into account what content you like as well as where you live
yep, not my call. I can enable ad types but, but I don't control what ads are shown and to whom.
Seeing him drive with one hand is probably the most frustrating thing ever
if you dont mind me askng. do you rent most of the cars that are in youre garage?
When I went through CDL school, we had a student that tried to "gangsta lean" with one hand on the wheel. Lets just say he still couldn't shift properly after 4 weeks and didn't pass his driving test.
So I've never looked into one of these "driving experiences" but in this situation who pays for it? Does company insurance cover it in your $99 fee, or are you liable to anything that happens?
Rob I don't understand entirely. was this incident part of a venture you own or just a video on CZcams? if it comes out of your pocket, I'm very sorry for the misfortune and negligence
I'd done the "exotic driving thing about 10 times on a couple of different tracks and a good instructor is key to having a good time and learning how to drive an exotic car anywhere nears it's limits. This is a good example of why you really should have a good instructor if you're going to drive an exotic like this. 1st clue the instructor didn't have a helmet on even before the "student" was driving with one hand. Not sure who's driving experience company this was but if I was the owner I an assure you the instructor would never work for me again.
the hardest thing to watch i feel your pain rob wow it will never be the same car again
The first thought that went through my head is why is this man driving a performance car with one hand
exactly-both hands on the wheel was the first thing my instructor told me 10/10 position and that's right there is telling you a lot about an instructor!
Wow, right on all points.... The guy wasn't just driving with one hand, he was crossing over the steering wheel and palming it. And the instructor told him to floor it... what a pair of idiots.
Rob, please do another video explaining what happened to the driver, instructor, the car and insurance. Thanks
You knew the potential risk of charging $100. You knew the quality you were getting when you under pay your "instructors"
big risk=big reward OR a huge loss.
In all my years of experience instructing Driver Skills, Driver Ed and Autocross for PCA, pretty sure I never once told a Novice to floor it. Probably never told anyone to floor it. There's just nothing to be gained, everything to lose. Believe me, the first few years you've got your hands full just learning to drive the line, hit the apex, and keep both goddamn hands on the wheel. I mean folks, watch Mr Spaghetti here, he still flips his hand over and grabs the wheel from the inside! Even a guy with his experience we have way, way, waaaayyy more things to teach before ever getting to "floor it". Good call, Rob. Now about those hands….
I played instructor for an ex colleague on our local racetrack. At a point I was literally hitting his hand because he kept it on the gear stick instead of on the wheel. We're on a racetrack trying to get you ' round in one piece relatively rapid, drive safe idjit :'D
Luv your vids bud!! Always informative!!
I have had lots of professional track driving instruction. One day I thought I could instruct my other friends on the track. Boy was I wrong. You really have to control what people are doing. The guy I went with wanted to show off and I felt instantly shady. We almost wrecked but I didn't feel comfortable commanding some guy I don't know that well how to drive. I was there to give pointers, then all the sudden I am in for a shady ride with some newb. I learned my lesson. I let actual instructors go out with people.
I think the driver share more responsibility. After all, he is the one behind the steering, he is the actual decision maker. It's like flying a plane, air traffic controller instruct the pilot to fly toward and lineup to the runway for landing, but the decision to land or not is in the pilot's hand. If the runway is unsafe due to weather etc, pilot make the ultimate decision to land or not. ATC is like a tool to assist the pilot. Does it apply to this case? Instructor did encouraged him to floor the gas. But he didn't FORCE him to do it. It's a common sense to slow down to a turn, he is behind the wheel, he is the one who decided when to start slowing for the turn. I mean if your instructor tell you to crash into a wall, do you follow his instruction? No, none of us would do it. A person with common sense would stopped and Not to hit the wall?
So what's the outcome from a business perspective? You said 125K in damage. Is the driver liable? Since this is your business, I'll assume you're covered. Was the car totaled? What did it cost you out of pocket?
just curious, the guy paid 99$ for the experience, after the crash, was it still 99$?
Might be a dumb question but who usually pays for this? The guys insurance or the companies insurance?
As a racing instructor myself this video contained every red flag for me ..the clearly not skilled driver..body position, hand position..
And the instructor who does not adres them at all. Before we step into a car and go on track, whe have told everyone 4 OR 5 times about the correct seating position. In no way one of our customers will drive with one hand at anytime.
i wonder what they said after it. is there any footage after the crash happened?
Dude that McLaren has some sick sick ass camber now!
does insurance cover this? if so is it your insurance or the drivers insurance?
I was thinking about attending one of these lessons soon, glad I watched this video
"Speed is irrelevant, the more I turn the wheel the harder I will steer"
In a situation like this, who would be held liable for the cost of the damage, who had to pay in the end?
In today's recap, Mr. Spaghetti roasts an incompetent driver/teacher duo and loses some of his $8M net worth.
Rob, good videos or bad videos(for you) still equal good videos for us. You're killing it. We appreciate it. Do another Vette video please. Thanks.
Went from "Last chance floor it floor it"To "Ohh what am I doing here "
You got to respect the power... That guy had no business behind the wheel driving it one handed... and the instructor? It just seemed he was checking the box without actually assessing the driver properly.
Do you have ownership in the company providing the driving experience or did this company rent the vehicles from Gotham?
Is this one of your cars or a random video? Curious to know how much, if anything, the driver had to pay.
Thanks for the post Rob. An instructor should be what his title is .... help people to become better at whatever he is an instructor for. He could have thought the gentleman how to decently use a steering wheel .... customer did not learn anything = lost session.
The driver said after the crash "wow mister, in my video game the car just bounces off obstacles with little to no damage so what's wrong with this car?".
So they didnt hit anything? But how came the wheels off?
