Speed ​​sofa

invented sofas to sit on them, and even better to lie. But the team boisterous Australian riders who fasten the motor to everything that is possible, turned double leather couch in the fast machine capable of accelerating to 163 km / h. This means that the current world record, set in 2008 British Marek Turov, who also modified the couch and passed on it at the speed of 148 km / h more irrelevant. Australian motosofa with a comfortable coffee table (padded cup of coffee and a bowl of fruit), was created by designers from the group «Evolution Motorsport». It is equipped with an engine from a motorcycle «Suzuki GSX 1400". Project manager Paul McKinnon said that the main task was to overcome solozhnosti aerodynamics that occur when moving a rectangular sofa on a breakneck speed. "This is a most unusual vehicle that we've ever constructed, - he admits. - With the racing cars you can use an aerodynamic body kit, but this will not make a sofa. So we tried to weaken the force of the air flow using the coffee table. " Trick-Speed ​​sofa became a part of the advertising show called «Add a Motor to It» («Just add the engine"), which this week held in the Australian city of Sydney.
