This US police officer unveiled possibly the strangest race car we’ve ever seen – and we’d bet that it’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen either.
Forget standard Chevrolet shifters, this is something else entirely.
Upside down is the new right way up.
And the race car even smashed its test run too.

Upside down is the new way to go
Everyone loves a modified race car – take the inside of this 1969 Ford GT40 for example.
It may look bog standard from the outside, but a secret slot car track lies inside.
Or this custom-built racer that even smashed the world record for acceleration.
This unique ride may just out do the rest, though.
Forget left or right hand driving – upside down is the way forward according to this cop.
He combined a 1990 Ford Festiva with a 1999 Chevy Camaro to create this Frankenstein’s Monster of a vehicle.
His aim was to take part in the 24 Hours of LeMons race – not to be confused with 24 Hours of Le Mans, the iconic – and much more serious – race that started in 1923.
That is the home of all things prestigious when it comes to racing, this is quite the opposite – nothing is supposed to be taken too seriously.
Just wait until you see the exterior of this remarkable creation.
Defying gravity…on gravel
It really has been turned upside down, with the chassis of the car making a rather comfy-looking seat – and the wheels aren’t…umm…wheeling.
It must have been a pricey project, as the race alone costs a mere $1775 per team, which covers one car and four drivers.
So, that plus the cars must have added up to quite a total.
It looks like a mystery and looks as if it might actually be defying gravity – It certainly is unique.
This isn’t the cop’s first rodeo at overhauling motors or taking part in the 24 Hours of LeMons race though.
This race car project is far from his first rodeo
He’s also crafted some other curious rides, including this car from made from an abandoned plane.
He turned this 1956 Cessna into a road-racing car, too.
Is there anything he can’t do?
Cop by day, manufacturer by night.
Maybe we’ll see him in an F1 engineer’s outfit in the near future – who knows?
Stranger things have happened – this car is living proof of that.
