VIDEO: Shocking MINI Racer Accident in Australia

A horrific crash involving a MINI Cooper S racer took place this past weekend at the Ipswich Raceway in Brisbane, Australia, when debutant racer Kain Magro, 23, literally cart-wheeled out of control over a barrier and into a crowd of spectators during a racing event that preceded the Ipswich 300 V8 Supercars race.

Miraculously, the driver was unhurt while only two people from the crowd were treated for minor injuries. Check out the video after the break.

DIY: Chinese Lamborghini "Wannabe" Replica Built for $3,000

25-year-old Chen Jinmiao from China is a mechanic and likes Lamborghinis. In fact he likes them A LOT. But he couldn't afford one (yet), so he decided to build his own - or at least one that vaguely resembles Sant'Agata's "Raging Bull" models.

For about $3,000 (US) in parts and a year's worth of time, Chen created a very-Lego Lamborghini that has a top speed of 60 mph (or 90, depending on who you trust). No word on the power source, but somehow I'm thinking an engine slightly smaller than a V12.

Perfect? Hardly. However, he DID built it from the ground up, which deserves a pat on the back.

If anyone's going to be around Chenzhou City, China, keep an eye out for it.
