Police say the guys were apparently racing the BMW, but don't know if another car was involved. Skid marks at the end of the runway indicate the driver attempted to stop, but was going too fast. The car sailed over 200 feet before hitting a tree, ripping in half, and catching fire. Authorities say the engine was actually torn from the car in the crash. Three of the passengers were ejected, two were trapped in what was left of the car. All were dead.
