Yeah. I was able to tell by the wheel design. Is that how you knew, too?

The article says that 2 people were "partially" ejected. There must have been something like 100G's of force to make that happen because I imagine that means that limbs were torn from the body by just the force of the impact.

Very sad. My guess is they all drunk out to have a good time flooring the driver's dad's new M5 up and down the airstrip and didn't realize that when you're going 150MPH, it takes more than 100 feet to stop. Anyone know how many feet it would actually take? My guess is somewhere between 1,250 and 2,000 feet, that's almost 1/3 the length of that airstrip.
