It was a case of luck gone wrong for a US man who won a Lamborghini only to crash it just six hours after taking it home.David Dopp won a 2008 Lamborghini Murcielago LP640, worth over $347,000, on November 12 at LaVell Stadium in Santaquin, Utah, in a competition run by Maverik petrol stations.He received his 640 horse powered prize, on December 17, local news service ABC4 reports. He took the car for a spin straight away, driving friends and family around his home until noise complaints forced him to head to the outskirts of Santaquin.But the fun ended when he lost control on a corner.”We were coming up a hill and going down a corner and we hit a patch of black ice,” he said.
