“Lamborghinis are played out—this is where it’s at,” said Top Gear’s Rob Dahm while strapped comfortably into the passenger seat of perhaps the greatest thing you’ll see this week.

And that’s a modified 1991 Mitsubishi Minicab kei truck, built by Shawn Bassett, owner of Florida-based modifying shop Attacking The Clock Racing.

Bassett said it’s “stupid,” but Top Gear heartily disagrees: This tiny, angry little tyke is brilliant. It’s got a tiny three-cylinder engine. A four-speed manual gearbox. Four-link rear and fully adjustable front suspension.

Plus: big rear diffuser! A massive rear wing! And the ambition to one day get an engine powerful enough to activate said rear wing! Shawn dailies his kei truck, so click play on the video above to reconsider every motoring choice you’ve made so far.
