Unrelated to Camaros but an awesome Car and Bike

So today was the first day of the Tumbler Tour. For those of you who do not know, the Tumbler is the newest Batmobile. Along with the Tumbler was also the Bat-Pod from "The Dark Knight". I took my 17 month old daughter to see the vehicles and before I could get my camera out she says "WOW". Enjoy the pics.

I heard they did have a ridable version, not sure if the one they're showing off here is it or not. But if I remember right, they said the huge tires on the bike made it a pain to ride.

It was a ridable version. It was very sweet to see those pieces up close.
