Normally, seeing a vehicle speed down the road on its roof would be cause for a 911 call – but not when SpeedyCop is behind the wheel. The 40-something cop, also known as Jeff Bloch, is known for making some truly crazy vehicles. But this upside-down Camaro might be the weirdest yet.

In making the unusual ride, Bloch mashed up a 1999 Camaro and a 1990 Ford Festiva, using parts from both to bring the upside-down racecar to life. According to the creative cop, he is just an 8-year-old boy in a 40-year-old body, which explains why he creates such wacky driving machines.

It’s not just for show, either. Bloch took this crazy car on the race track for the 2013 Spirit of LeMons race, an event that pits crazy, beat up or just plain odd cars against one another.

People do a lot of strange and dangerous things for fun and thrills, but biking downhill at 60+ miles per hour takes some serious guts. This gravity bike designed and built by Jeff Tiedeken was designed to handle crazy speeds and make you feel like you’re flying down hills.

The bike is noticeably missing some typical elements: pedals and a chain. That’s because it is meant strictly for downhill racing. You start at the top of a hill, hunker down and let gravity take you all the way to the bottom.

To the bike creator’s credit, he did put brakes on it so riders don’t have to drag their feet to stop. It would take a whole lot of guts – and ideally a whole lot of protective gear – to hop onto this sleek lightweight bike and hurl yourself down a hill at breakneck speed.

A few cups of espresso will turn anyone into a speed demon, but this conceptual espresso maker created by Ilgar Rustamov lets you proclaim your need for speed before you even take your first sip. The aptly-named Racepresso is modeled after Formula 1 racer Michael Schumacher’s Ferrari helmet, with the approval of the racer.

When the cover is down, the Racepresso looks like nothing more than a kitschy racing helmet. But when the cover comes up, the cool Nespresso coffee machine is exposed.

The Racepresso isn’t in production yet, but the designer is looking for opportunities to make his project a reality. The unique espresso machine would no doubt be a hit with Ferrari fans, many of whom seem keen to decorate entire houses with nothing but Ferrari-branded kitsch.
