There is footage of the crash on Instagram.

Different view of crash. It was not a gt40 as posted but rather a 2019 Ford GT nor was the daughter driving from my understanding.

Which driver though? If you mean the Ford GT driver I agree. Driving too fast for the area and to me it looks as if the driver had fully pulled out onto the road at for a short duration at slow speed albeit. I saw no barrel rolls either but regardless of the hyperbole, one has to agree that the damage is horrendous to that GT. All around painful for me to see.

Barrel rolls? Looks like the glass is in perfect shape. Don't see any smoke or fire damage but with the words across the screen tough to tell. Shame just the same soon to be found on Copart.

Looks like the car pulling out was partially at fault if not the main contributor. It appears to me that the gray hatch back was still at an angle and the gt swerved to avoid but got clipped. The gt may have also been speeding but hard to say. There will definitely be a crash investigation measuring skid etc
