New details have emerged including an in-depth behind the scenes video of the slot car track created for Audi Canada I posted last October. This video follows David Beattle, owner of Slot Mods USA who was in charge of building the elaborate track for Audi. I especially enjoyed the in-depth look at the craftsmanship of every little piece of the track including the thought process behind it. The hidden Quattro in the shed was also a great “car aficionado” easter egg. View the original slot car video here.

I’m sure many of you have seen those amazing papercraft toys that have been circulating around the web. You can make almost anything, from your favorite car to your favorite video game character. Audi really wanted a papercraft toy of their new 2012 Audi A7, so they commissioned Taras Lesko to get the job done. Taras spent an amazing 245 hours creating 750 unique components for the model using 285 sheets of paper. The model is about 4 feet long and was on display at the 2011 New York Auto Show. Luckily for us Taras recorded those 245 hours of hard work and compressed it into a 3 minute video.
