Life size LEGO car actually runs and runs on air! [video]

Sometimes the things that people can create with LEGOs is simply amazing. Take for example "The Super Awesome Micro Project" which was a project to build a full sized Lego car complete with a working LEGO engine that runs on air. That's right, air! The car was created by "Melbourne entrepreneur and marketing guy Steve Sammartino" and "Raul Oaida, a self-taught teenage technology genius from Romania who Steve met on the internet." Here are some really impressive facts about the car:

"Super Awesome Micro Project Factoids:
- The engine is made from standard Lego pieces and runs on air!
- The engine has four orbital engines and a total of 256 pistons.
- More than 500,000 LEGO pieces.
- Top speed around 20-30km (We drive it slow as are scared of giant lego explosion)
- Built in Romania and shipped to a secret location in Melbourne.
- It's a Hot Rod design, mainly because hot rods are cool."
