Shocking footage has been released showing the hair-raising moment a McLaren crashed at high speed – just days after the Jack Doherthy smash.
The incident occurred at a car and coffee meet, where the owner had taken his 600LT McLaren to chat, socialise and show off his motor.
While there, the owner of the supercar decided to demonstrate just how fast the vehicle could really go, as reported by What’s The Jam.

But after hurtling down a narrow country lane, the driver suddenly crashed into a corner, leaving the front bonnet of the vehicle completely broken off.
In the clip, filmed on 29 September in Connecticut, US, you can hear the car revving before speeding away down the road.
It then disappears round a corner and out of sight, before a huge crash is heard.
People can be heard shouting in the background.
The cameraman runs to the driver’s aid before finding the $300,000, (£250,000) car with its front bonnet smashed off.

A video went viral of him driving down a dual carriageway in Miami, US, and totalling his custom £230,000 McLaren 570S on Sunday (6 October).
It has been reported that Jack managed to get out of the car unharmed, but his friend, Michael David, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was taken to hospital.
In a brief response to a question about crashing his McLaren, Jack said: “I hydroplaned.
“I literally hydroplaned.
“I’m in a McLaren in the pouring rain.
“What did you guys expect? You guys have never driven a McLaren.”
Jam Press has contacted Jack Doherty’s representatives for comment.
