This isn’t the largest gathering of DMC DeLoreans in the history of Earth. But it is a considerable chunk of metal that once proudly trumpeted Northern Ireland’s motoring industry, and now stands as a testament to how awesome the 80s really were. In the movies, of course.

Last weekend, 16 DMC DeLorean owners decided to team up at the ‘Cruisin For A Cure’ charity event in Orange County, California (no, not cruising), to remind the world what the DeLorean is all about. In case you were unaware, it is all about Back To The Future.

So, without further ado, don your favourite Nike Mag high-tops, sleeveless puffa jacket and hoverboard, and prepare to kindle a loving friendship with a lonely, crazy and quite intelligent Man of Science. Don’t laugh, it was acceptable in the 80s…
