Pretty kool - 1966 batmobile from the tv series vs the 89 batmobile fro the movies
link ===> Famous batmobiles compete in bat-*** drag race - msnNOW

 

That's Nice..

 

that was a fantastic finish.............

 

The VERY END was the best

 

Great finish - I was rooting for the 66!

 

That 66 can't be the original. I thought the original was made out of a Lincoln???

 

Neither of them are origional

 

That makes sense now. Because I remember watching something on speed channel years ago about the 1989 Batmobile. The stunt man who drove it in the movie claimed it was "a pig". Because it could barely move under it's own power, and had a horrible turning radius.

I remember hearing that Barris' creations were all non-functional cosmetic mods made to look good on screen, but not so good up close in person. The drive train was pretty much all stock. Video of the 60's tv batmobile had to be sped up to make the car look faster than it was. If you saw the Sonny & Cher mustangs on the Barret-Jackson auction about a year ago, you know what I'm talking about.

Which leads me to believe that a race between the real batmobiles would probably have the same result. Just not as fast.

But forget performance. We're talking batmobiles. If I had to be seen driving one of the two, I'd take the 66. It's a classic that always gets positive reactions at car shows.

 

Id take the new one from the new movies haha, but tbh i wasnt paying much attention to the batmobiles

 

Me neither. I was paying attention to the part at the very end.
