Slartibartfast should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I spent some time re-shelling an Escort RS2000 road car. One Sunday morning I decided I needed to check the loom and engine wiring/timing/carburaton etc. But there was no interior fitted (or the replacement Janspeed exhaust system). So, I sat on an upturned milk crate and held onto the steering wheel, and took it for a test drive. I can't imagine what the cops would have done if they had caught me - and it was in the same area as the Imp test, so I assume they were more interested in breathalising old biddies for church wine after mass. It's one of those crazy things we sometimes do - just for the hell of it. :>) There were witnesses, and I still have photos of the car after it was finished, parked in Mondello.
And I still have the milk crate.
