This a race car with bearings as wheels for a fast and smooth run. The body has included support tabs on the ends of the axles that can be easily removed after printing. No need to add more support. Prin the body with at least 30% infill to make it heavy. The heavier the better. The weight will give the wheels more traction.

Print 4 copies of the wheel. The bearing/wheels are print-in-place and should not be printed with supports. After printing, gently pry the rollers free to make them roll. A few turns on the hub should loosen everything well.

Insert the axle into the hexagonal holes of the bearing. Make sure that the wheels turn freely. 

Place the race car on a relatively rough surface. Push or flick the car forward and watch it run and enjoy the mechanical sound of vibrating roller bearings.
