Guys, guys, guys. I sent this to Murilee quite a while back and he did invite the loony behind it to a Lemons function, I do believe, and posted it. Give the Ms. his/her due, y'all.
I have ridden in this car and the hood lobsters really do rise above a certain vehicle/wind speed. You get the sensation that you are about to endure a crustacean attack, until you realize they are facing the other way, defending you. When the car slows down, the defenders settle back to their relaxed position, and you can be secure that the wind won't muss your hair.
@Novaload: the fact that maybe only 14 Jalops will get this Proustian reference makes this an automatic COTD in my livre: mec, t'es toujours le meilleur!
I miss BTCC on TV. You've gotta love cars which have lights, signals, wipers, doors, etcetera, which are racing.
I always enjoyed the first lap technique of drivers trying to fold or knock the mirrors off competitor's cars. That takes a delicate touch, if you plan on not being penalized.

My only objection is the name... can't believe he neglected to substitute "Tabermackerel" for "Tabernacle".

Oh, wait, I have no clue what that means. Anyways, I love DTM, and this video does make everything better.

Zany enough to warrant a second mention, though.
