Sadly this cake car ended up being composted- they originally planned to donate it to charity, but after 4 days under studio lights it was no longer edible.

Careful: Mario did NOT drive this particular black car. This cake car is just a replica of a black car once driven by Mario Andretti.

Still a higher percentage of actual cake than a grocery store confection. hey-o!

Wasn’t this a South Park thing?

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
Engines pumping and thumping in time
The green light flashes, the flags go up
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern

It would have been interesting to see how the Andrettis got in and out of their cake-cars without damaging the cakes.

You go out at night, eating cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercuries and Subaru
And you don’t stop, you keep on eating cars.

Who would have seen that coming? /s

I’m not sure how obscene this waste of food is given the viewing demographic probably didn’t include that many starving people.

I guess on the upside they “composted” the cake.
