Summary

Speedy Cop has built the weirdest and most creative race cars you've ever seen. There's the airplane, or the tipped-over hippy bus, an amphibious helicopter that can drive on a highway or on a pond, or maybe you remember seeing photos of an UPSIDE DOWN Camaro racing around a track. All of those were built by Speedy Cop. Today we find out why the world was gifted such weird and amazing racing machines, where he's driven them, what went right and VERY WRONG, and what's next. https://speedycop.com/page/2/ @speedycop https://www.youtube.com/user/speedycopvideos Recorded May 30, 2023 Go to https://www.blackvue.com/TST to learn more about the BlackVue DR970X series dash cams.
