Each one can be printed from home, and then you just cut and fold the truck to form your own desktop toy that oozes kitschy style.
Just don’t come crying back to me when you’re on your third order of printer ink for the week!

Nic Case’s world record setting car cost him $4,000, has all-wheel-drive, has no brakes, makes 11-horsepower, and features a carbon fiber chassis.
Oh, and it’s controlled by a remote, and sits just a few inches off the ground.
Recently, the custom creation was clocked at 161mph on the track, though Nic’s confident that with a few tweaks, he can easily break the 200mph barrier.
Just don’t expect to buy one of these at your local Radio Shack!
