[DML] Car and Driver DMC Time Machine article!!

[Soma576@xxxxxxx]

The latest C&D has an article pitting the DeLorean Time Machine (built  by 
Dan Botkin and DMC Garden Grove) against the Starsky and Hutch Gran Torino,  Mad 
Max Falcon, General Lee, and the 'original' Batmobile.  
 
It is really a test for fun, and isn't about the best performer or fastest  
car (the Batmobile was actually about the same speed-wise as the DMC), but the 
D  only got 4th place.  
 
There are no cocaine slams or anything even bad about the car.  They  noted 
it was slow, but they were also quick to point out the 700 extra pounds of  
time-travel gear.  The car was also an automatic, so it surely would have  beat 
the Batmobile if it were a manual trans.
 
Some great pics and, of course, any press is good press.
