CCRACIN is compressed for C & C Racing. This was the name of my Dad's and my race team. When I started with e-mail etc. there were limits to not using symbols and more than 6 characters with the IP I was using. So since then it just stuck. The C & C is my name Chad and my dad's nickname Chops in any order.

Garage Dog 65 12-21-2007 10:15 AM

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). 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 - no matter how bad the project was going. I also really enjoy going to different shops and garages to meet people and see what they are doing - 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, 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

So what does camco do?

Common Area Maintenance COmpany. I do parking lot and building lighting maintenace, parking lot sweeping, pressure washing, and thousands of misc. repairs from graffiti removal to changing ceiling tiles for commercial shopping centers. Since the charges are billed back to the tenants as CAM (common area maintenance) charges, that seemed like a good name for my company.

JSR is the acronym for our racing team we had prior to buying the Camaro. I wanted my wife to be part of it so she got first billing. Janie/Steve Racing.

69 is the year of my all time favorite car, 69 Camaro. Also happens to be what I'm working on now.
