Tears Of The Kingdom Player Creates A Working Star Wars Podracer
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will have you think Link is the hero of Hyrule, who bravely faces anything that threatens the land. But the truth is that he is a power-crazed sadist who builds elaborate torture devices and horrific killing machines straight out out of a Bokoblin's nightmare. You never know when he'll attack, whether by air or ground.
However, not all of the machinations that Link builds are murder machines. There are those which could even be considered artsy. There are some players who don't exclusively build Korok killing machines or contraptions to trap the guy holding all those signs. A recent example of this is meatswipe's recreation of Anakin Skywalker's podracer from Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace.

"Then on the wooden wheel attach two beams, a fan on 45 degrees for lift and forward momentum of the cockpit, a steering stick, and on the back a stabilizer. It’s surprisingly maneuverable! Works on water as well, costing 30 Zonite without materials."

While it looks as close to a podracer as you can get in Tears of the Kingdom, it unfortunately doesn't travel as fast. You'll probably have to attach some rockets to it if you really want to race.
