Record breaking Suit

 

Lets Evo has always an appreciation for crazy record breakers. The austrian ski champion Harry Egger is going to try to beat Philippe Goitschels world speed record of 250.7 km/h. He is going to wear a suit made of carbon fiber that and tested at the wind channels from the Sauber F1 team. To slow down he will use a parachute operated by a remote controll. Lets see if he can stop that thing.

I couldn´t find more information about this suit, if some of you know anything, let us know please.
