Imagine if Batman asked iconic Formula 1 designer, South African-barn Gordon Murray, to design the next Batmobile. Well, that's exactly what the producers of the show "Batman Live" did - and here it is. According to Murray, the Caped Crusader's new wheels would have an F1-inspired "breathable" carbon-fibre body, lights inside the wheels, a carbon-ceramic afterburner (can't think why, he envisions a hydrogen fuel cell and lithium-ion batteries as prime movers), a radar jamming system and laser cannons.
