A submarine made out of corn starch that can travel at the speed of light. Can anyone help me out here?

Pictures of whatever creations people creationize would be wonderful.

If you take a rhinoceros and accelerate it to .99c, then it'll Lorentz-contract to the approximate shape of a squished rhinoceros. Q.E.D.

From a surrealistic point of view, you could ask a squid. I think they made great progress in the field of superluminal propulsion. They have been known to be secretive, though, and are usually loathe to share their findings with non-mollusks.

For only RUB 104, you can acquire this disposable, former-soviet-army-surplus squid-to-humanoid translator (Limited offer! Buy now! One-way translation only!), but any injury, physical or psychical in nature, to the user of said translator will be only covered if you (the buyer) are on the surface of Iovis at the time of use.

Also, corn starch submarines make for near-perfect bike chains.

How about one powered by baking soda? That's close, right?
