[Steve Smith]

Cody McButterFly -

Maybe part of a reality series "Fireball Run", vaguely related (maybe)
to the classic gumball rally?

I don't care what Los Alamos or MIT or Germaine Tobar say, *DON"T drive
the DeLorean backwards at 88MPH" (and don't get the Gremlins wet either).  

Here's ya some "reversibility" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpJ-kGII074
