Wind powered M6 speedster would make Speed Racer green, and lame

The one thing entirely in the favor of speed racer is that the M5 can take on very high speeds and do amazing things, but the days of all that are probably numbered, especially if he ever chooses to ride the M6 concept. Well to be fair, designer Funfere Koroye doesn’t seem to say that the concept has anything to do with speed racer, but the name and the paintjob are direct giveaways.

m6 speedster concept

The concept is made of Formula 1 carbon composite body parts, and has a rudder, wings and a dc motor that converts even the slightest of wind into momentum. Also, as the momentum increases, the car begins to suck more (wind, that is) and can further increase its speed, all the way to the top speed of… behold the 120mph M6. We suggest speed racer be shot on sight if he’s ever seen in the cockpit of this one.
