Sheena Monk is currently in stable condition after a brutal crash in this Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America race at Laguna Seca. Her Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo lost it’s brakes and it went straight into the wall at the top part of the famous Laguna Seca Corkscrew. She only had 6 minutes complete of the nearly one hour race.

She was going so fast it threw the Lamborghini Super Trofeo in the air and slammed down on all 4 wheels. The race ended up being red flagged so the safety crews could extract Monk from the mangled Lamborghini. IMSA reported that Sheena Monk is conscious and has been taken to Santa Clara Valley Medical Center.
