Holy accelerator! Where do you park your car when it’s the Batmobile? “Someplace safe,” says the new owner, Patrick McLynn, 23, of Richmond, Va., a bartender and Batman aficionado who won the Caped Crusader’s car in an MTV giveaway contest to further hype the Warner Bros. film. McLynn, who does not own a car, also gets a check for $25,000. The car is the actual prop used in “Batman” but it will be delivered without a motor. McLynn says his first thought was to put a suitable motor in the Batmobile, but he probably won’t because “I don’t think I could get it insured for the road.”
