I've seen motorcycles do stuff like this before, but haven't seen cars do it before...

[alex.w *//]

hmm i seen this on tv before

incredible

[KingDeeCee]

What the fuck....Dare devils....

The car doesn't even seem to go very fast in the beginning. I thoguht it was gunna trip right over.

[MG1]

That would get boring pretty fast. I guess they have special mods done to the car. First of all, if it were my 84 Accord, I wouldn't be able to get it up to speed. LOL. There would also be the issue of gas getting to the carb, plus the oil would be all over the engine..... wouldn't it?

[jimzilla]

good ol physics

[HappyDorky]

how does it stay on .
o_o

I would think the force that's keeping the car down (centripetal??) would also keep down the fluids, etc.

You're right........... makes total sense.

(centrifugal??) more inertia in case of the .............. nvm........ it's too late.

[hk20000]

there is centripetal force and then there is gravity.....so the car will act as though it's turning right VERY HARD the whole time....

the fluids in the engine is designed to deal with that if the engine is laid out sideways - some FR cars will have trouble with oil starvation if it keeps turning to one side for a long time.

?????????????????

[StaxBundlez]

wow
..

none of them are wearing any helmets...
thats crazy


i didnt know this was possible lol

[Gary Oak]

they must be soo bored of that by now

[tonyvu]

that's physics for you ahhaha

those cars need spoilers for extra downforce!

[-EuroRSN-]

Holy fuck is that ever dangerous! Hate to see what would happen if something went wrong!

HOLY FUCK THERE A FUCKIN LION hahahahaha oh man this is awesome

[Qasual]

Now only if Romans had battles like that.

[JHuJHu]

Wow i've never seen that before. thats amazing!

[optiblue]

seems dangerous

[AzNightmare]

Wow, it's that easy to drive sideways?? I mean those cars aren't even going very fast.

[nipples]

what happens if you slam on the brakes?

[Eastwood]

If a Koennigsegg (spelling) can drive upside down, then I have reason to believe its possible to drive on sideways like these cars.

[t8v6]

what happens if you slam on the brakes?

u fall off =.=

[nipples]

LOL

[metal]

LOL @ the lion! Random funny!

[Blinky]

The walls aren't perfectly vertical. Go fast enough and a car will be okay. Should be easier with a lighter car. As has been mentioned, a greater challenge would be making sure that the engine is lubricated and the fuel pickup point is OK.

I don't know how much downforce the Koenigsegg makes -- I doubt it's enough for it to drive upsidedown. A F1 car could, in theory, drive upside down, but afaik it hasn't been done before.

[ajax]

hahaha ive seen this in india! it was pretty crazy

[Minata]

omg they're not wearing helmets. scary.

[jimmerz]

exactly, the walls aren't exactly vertical,
its kind of like swinging a piece of string with a ball/mass at the end

[InvisibleSoul]

Well, I don't know whether that is exactly vertical or not, but there's no reason why it couldn't be... not sure why that's made to be a point.

[jimmerz]

ie. less force required, thus more do-able

[EDub_]

Man, thats crazy.

[InvisibleSoul]

ie. less force required, thus more do-able
But even if it isn't totally vertical, it's like 85° vertical... it wouldn't make too much difference if it was 90°.
