I think that maybe someone should get a small block of balsa wood, I might even do this myself, and carve it into a coaster car maybe using a dremmel or something, paint it and attach wheels from the SS Cars to them, I mean instead of molding or whatever , we can use the wood, it would already weight the cars, and you can have endless car design possibilitys with different shapes and sizes such as a TTD Car or an actual inverted car, and you can carve out channels to reduce the weight or add weights to them, you can also paint them how ever you want! Any comments, things to add, etc?

If you are willing to do all that, that would be awesome, especially for the invert cars.

That would be a lot of work, but if you did it nicely, it would be really cool. It would be even cooler if you could make them using a 3d printer.

Yeah I may get a few blocks of balsa and maybe experiment a little with the dremmel and maybe use my old ss car wheels this weekend if I have the time 
what kind or style car should I attempt first?

an invert would be cool ether that or a dive machine.
Then you can build the best dive machines ever or inverts..
That would be hard I was going to do this too but after I made the first one I would make a mold for it and make home made plastic.

I will have access to a 3D printer and auto-cad/inventor, (a computer program that you design the cars or what ever you wont on then send that to the 3D printer witch makes that a model of what you designed) once i enroll in my schools engineering program, but I'm not shore I will be up to the job it is really time consuming.

why not the car of the coaster ''x''?
i pretty like that ones, but it's very hard to make and it costs a lot of time.
