Watch A McLaren 720S Smash Into A Parked Audi R8

Dramatic footage shows the moment someone attempted to launch a 720S in Toronto, only to spin out and hit a parked R8

Well, this looks expensive, doesn’t it? Apparently shot in Toronto, this footage shows the moment someone tried a hard launch in a McLaren 720S, quickly lost the rear end and piled into a parked car. The parked car being an Audi R8.

The title mentions ‘launch control’, but this to us looks more like the driver turned off the driver aids and stamped on the throttle. Even in this potato-spec vertical footage, we can see quite a bit of damage was done to both cars.

The Reddit post for the video contains a copy/pasted description that apparently came from Facebook, stating the following:

“A 19 year old kid took his sisters 720s out, didn’t have a license, then tried launch control. Lost control and hit the R8 that was parked. The kid ran away from the scene but forgot his passport in the car…the sister then was scene [sic] arriving in an lambo [sic] trying to take the blame.”

We’d take that preposterous but just about plausible story with a wee pinch of salt until some more solid information arrives.

Must be a mustang owner who traded it in to get the 720S.
