Artist creates full scale F1 car from recycled styrofoam



We have no idea why Michael A. Salter wanted to create a race car out of polystyrene packing waste, and we guess it doesn't matter -- he did, and this is the result. We don't have much any information on the single-seater open-wheeler other than that it's on display at the John Ross Plaza Studio in Portland, Oregon. However, we did find out that Salter is "known internationally for his wry polystyrene packaging sculptures dubbed 'Styrobots'," and the styrobots are just as cool as this car which you can check out in the gallery below.
