Deadmau5 Gets Race Car Logo Tattoo After Test Drive

(Radio.com) Joel Zimmerman, aka Deadmau5, has gone to visit a possible new toy, a BAC Mono- and to celebrate, tattooed himself with the race car's logo. Built by Briggs Automotive Company in Great Britain, the Mono is a $185,000 high-performance, ultra-light, hand-built race car that, surprisingly, is street legal in many countries including the U.S.. Upon arrival, a slide show presentation was made in Zimmerman's honor.

The DJ was accompanied by fellow Canadian Josh Cartu, a fellow race car enthusiast, Ferrari pilot and drift team owner. The two were given a tour of BAC's facility where the cars are designed and built, followed by an invitation to drive one.

Shinoo Mapleton, president of Sector 111, BAC's U.S. distributor, told Radio.com he could not confirm if Zimmerman had indeed made a deposit on a vehicle. With many of the company's clients being celebrities or of great wealth, privacy is very important to the company. Mapleton noted that if someone were to submit a deposit on one of these custom built automobiles, the customer wouldn't take possession until the end of the year due to the overwhelming demand and very limited production. more on this story
