You will quickly understand the muddy side (muddy in English) …
Let’s stay in the tree transport, but this time express! Each year, the American trainer Hennessey has a tradition of driving straight ahead with one of his vehicles. This time around, the missile is a 750 hp Porsche 911 Turbo S. With its tree hanging from the roof, the prepared coupe reached 281 km / h.
