Per WFAA:

Police said that their preliminary investigation determined that two vehicles — a Chevrolet Corvette and a Lamborghini — were speeding in the far left lane of Central Expressway when the drivers lost controls of their vehicles. Per their investigation, police said the Lamborghini swerved onto the highway’s shoulder and hit the center-median wall divider, causing a chain reaction that involved four more vehicles in the collision, bringing the total number of cars involved to six.

Police said the occupants of the Lamborghini and Corvette ran from the scene before police arrived, without offering insurance information or checking to see if any of the other victims were in need of medical assistance.
