The driver said he was cut off by a semi, all the witnesses said he was doing about 100 mph and tried to switch lanes between 2 semi's and the RR clipped the front of the truck and then spun out. That is what I heard.

I just knew that A LOT would end up like this, if not worse. Just a matter of time. Thats a lot of car to handle. Oh well.

So this doesn't surprise me. Sucks to see such a nice car crashed though.
