It’s a fact that has been recited countless times - that if you drive fast enough, race cars, like those in Formula 1, could actually drive upside down. Well someone finally proved it, and with their own clever twist - no speed was required to make this happen. At zero miles per hour, the car is genuinely capable of holding itself to the surface, while upside down. Dab the throttle pedal, and boom, you’re driving upside down. Insane. The task is actually a very difficult engineering challenge, so I spoke with the team behind the McMurtry Speirling, and in this video we’re going to learn how they did it.
