Well - if you folks at ATS are going to just write the whole thing off - I suppose nobody is going to acknowledge the potential issue; but before I give up on hoping that someone here is going to look past the simple answer - The Actual stretch of this road where the accident occurred is over a hundred yards from the nearest 'sharp turn'.
Disregard it; just as most of you disregard everything, but I'll be here not being ignorant.
murders require motive, he was an actor for Gods sake a guy that reads a fictional lines from a script in front of a camera. There is no motive, show respect for the dead by stop making stuff up just to fuel some fantasy or boredom you have.

They were doing almost 90 when they lost control, and hit the first sign. They hit the speed limit sign, then a light pole that came down, then the tree.

The Carrera GT is made of lightweight materials (the body is made of carbon fiber). That means a high speed impact is going to tear it to pieces.
What would you say happened to this GT?

I would just like to share something with those who believe there was not enough impact to that car. The following link will show that it was the heat, fire AND the impact that caused so much damage.

This clearly wasn't "just an accident" on it's own. This "accident" had help in one form or another. I'd like to find out who the previous 5 owners were. Maybe I'll pay for a Carfax on that plate. I won't be posting the info here as we know what happens to those threads.

The "before its news" website said it was a predator drone, and so this apparently sounded too out there, but an explosive device in the car does make sense in terms of probability and damage sustained by the vehicle. Also, when are predator drones ever really accurate to hit a moving target? Sadly though, many people are dismissing this as just a road accident, well in that case there should be an investigation if, as some are suggesting, the Porsche is so wildly out of control, it should be investigated. They investigated a Toyota that wouldn't stop accelerating, which is just silly, so why not investigate a Porsche that suddenly blows up?
My opinion is, a device in the car, not a predator drone, seems most plausible. Yes, I dare to express my opinion and I may respond to your snarky dissaproval of my comment, but no promises.

I'm tired of this nonsense.
They were driving what has been hailed by many pro drivers as one of the most dangerous vehicles ever made. It has scared the crap out of far better drivers than these two.
The driver was NOT a pro. He had a little time on the racetrack. He had the money. He was better than most, but in no way would I consider his experience worthy of that car.
Don't talk about the performance potential of the car without talking about the performance potential of the car. Yeah, it has good brakes. My sedan takes about 10 feet longer to stop from 60 to 0 though. Good brakes aren't always good brakes. Same with tires. What's good on the track is NOT good on the street. We also have no clue what kind of brakes dude was running. It wouldn't surprise me if he slapped on a set of retard race composite nonsense that only work when they heat up on a track.
The damage makes perfect sense. The thing is carbon fiber. Carbon fiber shatters.
This car could hit 100 before you finished a fear fart. I don't have a problem taking a lot of 15 MPH curves at let's pretend I said 40, in this car you could probably do a 90 degree angle at 120 mph. Get someone cocky behind the wheel, in a car like that, and I have no problem believing they could bounce the thing off a few trees and wind up with an explosion. Add to that the reports of the car having issues and it makes even more sense.
Exotics have a tendency to be driven by asshats and get totaled.
