I don't think this car was a turbo.
I believe an NA 3.8L.

Ouch! I doesn't even look like he attempted to turn the wheels into the next turn....just ran slam-on to the concrete.

The navigator guy in the passenger seat probably can't wait to ride with him again... around here the alligators would be lots of fun.

Seems hard to imagine he wouldn't have seen the barrier but it sure looks as though he was accelerating out of one corner in his mind and a different one in reality ...

I think the guy just totally blew (by) his braking point.

This video posted on the 911 side and the two drivers are ok. It seems that the accelerator got stuck while accelerating out of the corner and believe it or not, it was reported that they are fixing it for the next race. The tub was ok after the crash
