How the McMurtry Spéirling defied gravity to become the first car to drive upside down
Motorheads have long theorised that the extreme downforce generated by high-performance cars could one day let them drive upside down. Now, British carmaker McMurtry has turned that wild idea into a reality for the first time. In a stunt that would make Batman jealous, McMurtry drove its insanely fast electric Spéirling flipped over. More impressively, it did that for over a minute while keeping the vehicle completely stationary — save for a quick acceleration to prove the car wasn’t tied down. While it might look like the car has defied gravity, in reality, it’s basic physics coupled with some clever…This story continues at The Next Web
