Weird place to crash . Wide dry straight road in broad daylight with 15mph speed limit . Here's a video of the crash scene just after the impact .

Tick tock goes the clock and the clock don't lie .
12.4sec to 109mph With NO turbo , NO gay trailer , NO slicks , NO gas , NO race fuel and NO bits missing . Beat that !!!!Comment

The GT is super quick, but if you don't respect any fast car then it can bite you and unfortunately in this case the speed has contributed to the devastating outcomeCheers

The driver was an experienced race car driver as well and not some playboy millionaire numpty so that makes the crash even more strange than normal .
This was a very fast top notch modern supercar (low 11sec) so easy to get into trouble in the wet etc but that road is wide , dry and straight and the skid marks show the car was sliding sideways into the trees .
I find it all a bit odd and wonder if some 2 ton yank tank was trying it's luck and smacked it up the arse and sent it on it's way?

Some odd tyre marks and bits/ pools of fluid in the road well away from where car crashed. At least someone was at the car to see if they could get people out rather than getting it on videoComment

Yes the debris is spread over a wide area like it may of hit something first before comming to rest in the trees . There's also some weird looking skid marks like another car span in the middle of the road or something ?
Early reports were saying this was a one car accident though .sigpic 2.1 ATMO YB POWER .

I figure anyone on here would know how quick that car was and that a low 11 was its QM time.
Your post lacks a bit of class for me and is inappropriate at this time.Comment

Yes a low 11sec 1/4 mile (approx 3.5secs to 60mph) so pretty nippy for a factory car . A fuel fire is the same though no matter what the car is = get out quick or else !!!!
