The car was doing a little over 100 Miles an hour when they got to the end of runway and realised it too late. Driving a supercar, they didn’t realised they were so fast and subsequently lost control. The speed was just too high when they reach the end of the runway.

The car rocketed upto 300-feet after flying over the end of the runway, flipping over end-to-end multiple times before it ultimately landed on its wheels over 650-feet from the end of pavement.

The car was found wrecked about 650 feet upfront from the end of the runway. Several skid marks were found across the end of the runway.
