Everyone is use to seeing cars crashing into the wall as they make hundreds of left turns while zipping around the racetrack. Something you don’t see at most races is a rare Ferrari Enzo slamming into a barricade. But, then again, comedian Eddie Griffin usually isn’t behind the wheel on the oval either.
Griffin was driving the $1.5 million machine at the Irwindale Speedway in order to practice for an upcoming charity race to promote his latest movie “Redline.” Apparently the car had just a wee bit too much power for Griffin and as he came out of a turn he lost control and smashed the front end of the car into the wall, damaging the expensive automobile beyond repair. However, unlike the basketball player who shares his name, Griffin was not watching porn at the time of the crash.
Daniel Sadek is the executive producer of “Redline” and the owner of what use to be one of only 400 Enzos ever produced. Sadek said that he had “mixed feelings” about the incident.
I’m glad Eddie came out of the crash OK, but my dream car got destroyed,” Sadek said. “I went to my trailer for about 15 minutes and I thought, there’s people dying every day. A lot of worse things are happening in the world.
OK, keep telling yourself that, but we know that you really want to wrap your hands around Griffin’s throat and squeeze until his head pops off.

who finds him funny?
his standup routines — are a little disappointing to me but I think Eddie Griffin is hilarious. Undercover Brother is completely underrated. Man that movie is good.
He is funny — I thought that bit he did where he drove the Ferrari into the wall was hilarious. Oh, that wasn’t a skit? Even funnier.
