Saw just now on news as well.

Paul Walker's car wasn't racing, source says; speed in curve may have been a factor - NBC News.com

Some newscaster is making stuff up about their speed. I'll wait for the final analysis but to cut the car in half on impact and hurl the starter motor 200 ft onto the roof of a building down range? They were moving fast. Very very fast. A CGT goes from 60-100mph in 3 seconds.
