It was bound to happen. You always see those videos of Ferrari's, Lambo's, Bugatti's, GTR's, etc., getting wrecked all the time. The RCF is now part of that category. Poor car....

This one was reliable…

Also, the motor running at full 90 degree tilt.

I’m sure the car was OFF when they flipped it back.. They forgot to put it in PARK..

Again a proper Tow truck / Wrecker would have hooked the car before putting it back on its tires.

That RC F's undercarriage looks pristine. Must have been nearly new.

I'd level your wrath on the parents. What do you expect a 'dumba$$ kid' to do with a powerful car? Just saying.

sad to see such a gorgeous car go to waste like that... even though it was on drive could you go from d to p? doesnt the brake need to pressed to even go to r or p? Lucky no one got hurt, if there were no rails and the car fell off the cliff who knows what couldve happen to the people trying to change the gears on the car.

If you put your car in park when it is moving, you will hear grinding until the car stops

Ferris Buellers Day Off, except he wrecked the car!

It's okay to have a fast car at home, just lock the keys in your safe if you cannot trust your teenaged son...it only takes one incident and they are gone...

http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=4198416&page=1
The 18-year-old behind the wheel of a BMW that crashed this weekend, killing five Florida teens, was reportedly online hours earlier seeking advice on how to handle the $80,000 car at speeds of 140 mph and above.
Authorities say Joshua Ammirato, 18, of Fairfield, Fla., snuck his his father's gray 2008 BMW M-5 onto the main runway, with four friends onboard. Police say after racing down the strip, the car flew off an approximately 85-foot-high embankment at the end of the runway. They say the car was going so fast it went airborne for about 200 feet before slamming into a tree.
