Mike,
It doesn't matter if there is a curb or not if the wheels are 
turned,it will hopelly prevent the car from rolling down into on 
coming traffic or into your neighbors property,across the street,or 
if the incline is going into your living area into your house.
Also remember when you park your Delorean on a incline overnight,(or 
anytime)that MOST of your oil in the oil pan is AWAY from your pickup 
tube/screen in your oil pan,so that when you start your car you MAY 
possibly NOT HAVE any oil or low oil pressure/lube depending on the 
incline of your driveway.My suggestion is to either put the car in 
netural and roll it down to a level area and then start it,or if you 
have the side area(s) by your driveway to park your Delorean 
sideways,with the nose of the car towards the driveway.The nice thing 
about parking it sideways is that people driving by get a nice view 
of your Delorean as they drive by.(depending on your driveway)
