My Dad and I started racing Stock cars about the time I got my first email account years ago. We called ourselves C&C Racing. Back in the early days of dial up etc. there were some pretty strict rules on user names. Length, characters, etc. So C&C Racing became CCRACIN and it has stuck ever since. :thumbsup:

Garage Dog
 
Garage Dog - picked it up after talking to Smokey Yunick at Indy one year while I was in high school (you might know the story about his beloved hounds - Junk Yard being with him at the track that year). I had noticed that every hot rod, race shop, body shop, fab shop and garage that I went to had 1 or several dogs that were always there hanging around, checking out what was going on and always had a great attitude with tail wagging - no matter how bad the project or day was going.

I also really enjoy going to different shops and garages to meet people and see what they are doing and learn new stuff - and I'm always amazed at how open, friendly and helpful everyone is, and how close knit of a community there is in this industry/sport/hobby. I've always been the most comfortable in a shop or garage environment and greatly enjoy the time spent there. (especially with Heat, Stereo, Cable TV and a Fridge !)

65 is just because someone had the base name -- so I threw 65 on the end for my 65 Porsche 356G project.

Lat-G is like a virtual garage to me with a bunch of really cool builds, cars and great people. It's very comfortable here !! Jim

My last name is Hull and everybody on my team when I played ice hockey called me "Hulley". I kinda like it.

I bought a C4 corvette in high school and came up with the name joking among my friends for liscence plate ideas. (C4, explosive = xplosiv, get it?). Then my c4 ended up getting stolen and wrecked. :mad:
