DDY RCKT is a license plate friendly version of Daddy Rocket.
It's a long story, get some coke... Ok, not really. A couple three years ago I started in helping do FEA and CFD development for performance aftermarket parts for MINI's, and got hooked up with a shop called DDM Works. One day I called the head man in charge, Dave, and when he picked up the phone he said "What's up, Daddy Rocket?" completely out of the blue. It stuck, and that's my shop name now. |
Speedy was a nickname my friends had given to me years ago when I had quite a collection of speeding tickets. I was driving a V10 Dodge truck when started participating in message boards, so SpeedyV10 was the name I first signed on with.
The name once again fit a little better last year when I co-owned a Viper with a friend of mine. |
class67 = as in classy / simple or not over done and 67 (obviously) the year of the car...dumb huh!:rolleyes:
|
Rocketman, is what friends called me in my street racing days and it just carried on.

ntchbl67 = untouchable 67
I used to go watch the races at "Yellow Belly Dragstrip" located in Dallas, Texas. A guy that paintbrushed t-shirts was always there on the weekend. So one day I go and ask him if he would air brush my car(67 camaro) on a t-shirt. He accepted so he asked for my name and to come back half an hour later. I see the t-shirt and it said my name on the front with my car on the back and "Untouchable 67" written on top of the car. Long story but I loved it!!LOL It sticked since then..........12 years ago!!!! |
RSK68

What most of these cars started out as :D
|
I started building race cars when I was about 12 when my dad drug home a 56 chevy to build for a circle track car. The second car we built started a trend to build light weight, simple cars, that concentrated on handling performance. A local GM warehouse manager built a 61 chevy with a L88 427, a car we outran on a regular basis, after wearing him out one saturday night, with our dead stock LT1, he said if I had your car and my motor zero to fear would be instant. In my 35 years of racing I have exprienced the term many times. When we started build cars , customers hung the name on the components we designed and built.

Not to imaginative
One of my cars is A torino and the other a Fairlane. Both are powered by FE's. Once you own an FE you end up wanting more FE's. The car I'm building pro tour style is my Torino.

I think if you've seen the project I'm doing you'll understand why I call myself Novanutcase!

I'll try to make this as short as I can.......
One day when I was about 10-ish years old, I was over at my friends house. His dad was drunk and was singing to himself which he always did. I walked into the room and he just blurted out a new tune he just came up with. Since my name is Joe.....it went somthing like this......... "Yeah, ole Kokamo Joe was a good ole soul......he had a buckskin belly and a rubber a$$hole" Then ever since then, I've been called "Kokamo" by all my buds. It even became my CB handle back in the day. So ever since the day of the drunk, it has just stuck. Joe (AKA....Kokamo-Joe) |
I am sure you guys can figure mine out !
|
BRIMSTONE is the name of our 1957 Chevy Panel project truck.
Thought it was cool. The Avatar is from the logo on our 1967 Chevelle "Joker" |
Mine's kinda easy... The C is my first name (chad) the Read is my last name.
|
Mine is the initials of my family, Scott, Lisa, Cody, Kyle and of course my favorite year.
|
Budweasel = alter ego of a couple of years ago when I was on strike for a Budweiser distributorship in St. Louis. It was a small cartoon character that was on our "corporate campaign" paraphernalia. I was pretty hurt by the whole thing. I was a total company man then lost my job and my $20+K pension, (80 some hours from vesting). Might have harbored a little resentment over that one. Now I run the flatwork side of a concrete company, so not much pertinence now.

I am responsible for shaping the minds of young impressionable high schoolers... at least until the end of the year, then its off to a new direction with an automotive business and starting a new local church...just another normal year:_paranoid
quick soap box story..you would be amazed at the interest these teenagers show when I open up my garage and their eyes flash to a carcass of a 68 camaro... show the kids some time and we will have a strong vibrant hobby for many years...somebody messed me up when I was a young impressionable teen...it was a 68 fastback with hi-jacker shocks and Uniroyal tiger paws 50 series...:unibrow: |
Chris that's great...we do need to pay attention to the kids!

Some may know what my screen name means...others may not, so here goes:
My name "XPLANTDAD" translates literally to "transplant dad" a name I conjured up in the early days of AOL...where you were limited to a certain amount of letters and characters for your screen name. My daughter Holly is a heart transplant (she was transplanted in 1990 at the age of 5 1/2 months) and she is doing well. Here are a few pics of her: Holly with Carroll Shelby at Barrett Jackson last year (He had his heart transplant 3 months after Holly) http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...n_DSCF7404.jpg Here's the pic I took in a car magazine ad...:cool: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...magazinead.jpg And here's a portion of a poster that Carroll sent to Holly when she was about 3 years old: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...y/DSCF7018.jpg Okay, now that I've bored you to tears...carry on!:thumbsup: Bruce |
Well mine is pretty self explanatory, but it all started back in 97 when i bought a 1992 S10 reg cab with a 2.8 5 speed and had plans to yank it out and drop in a 1992 F-body 5.7 TPI engine and an f-body T5 5 speed, but was moving to houston to go to school, and decided to leave the 2.8 in there so the truck was more reliable, and sold the TPI and 5 speed. I then started doing some small bolt on mods for more power, then did headers, exhaust, i mena all the bolt ons they sell and the truck was pretty quick out of the hole, i dynoed it once and it made 105 HP and 170 TQ to the wheels from a internally stock 2.8 V6 TBI. I used to race a freinds hopped up early 90's rustang, and i could always pull him thru the intersection, then it was over, but it was fun and the name just kinda stuck, and i use it on all the forums, and email.
