Summary

What's the one myth Kari and Tory always wanted to test on MythBusters but never could? Can a Formula One car generate enough downforce to actually drive upside down? Former professional racing driver Scott Mansell joins Kari and Tory to answer that exact question, break down the wild physics behind Project Inversion, and why he's volunteering to be the one strapped in for the attempt.
