mine is a portion of my company name Elite Custom Body & Paint ,which has been in business officially since 1991 , my only other screen name I use on many other forums is Exvelocity = extreme velocity

When I was first getting online, I joined a billiards message board first. I think that was back in 1993 or so. At the time, I played way too much pool. I became a collegiate conference champion at 9-ball, and then played pro tournaments for a few years. Even had a cue sponsor (Bludworth). I don't have much time for the game nowadays, but I can still shoot okay. Anyone wanna gamble? :)

Guess the name stuck. I use it on every board I'm on. :thumbsup:

Tony, I can see you walk in to the room...."so how do you play this 8...oh, I'm sorry 9 ball game?" Later you walk (actually run) away with all the cash and a big :D on your face!! "must have been beginners luck?"!! :lol:

Good times!! ;)

DFAuto came from my shop Driving Force Automotive. Unfortunately with the slow economy DFAuto is went from 3500sqft to my two car garage at home. At least I have a well equipped shop at home but only room for one car.

Hang in there and think positive! It's better to down size and keep working than keep the larger rent/building that surely will put you out of business.....sounds like you made the right decission!

Uh, mine means like uh, my name. I know, kind of crazy. But that is just uh, me. Kind of crazy.

I was not smart enough to use a killer name went I came on lateral-g so I stuck with it .:lateral: :lateral: :lateral:

Started in High School, was reinforced at the steet races -there was a rapper named Dougie Fresh back in the day---Since my name was Doug, it stuck every race I went to. College was no different---I don't think I actully heard my real name until I graduated and was handed my diploma. The guys at the tire store I worked at actually had my name changed on my work shirts to "D Fresh". I still here it at many of the Head Up races I attend---younger guys are like--"dude, that's a gay name"--but I've held onto it since there were so many good memories surrounding it.

A long time ago I tried to get "SuperSports" for a screen name and since it was taken, I started getting other site generated suggestions (I don't remember which site), anyway I went ahead and put a "3" in front since at the time we had a 68 SS-396, 69 SS-350 and a 69 pace car - SS-350. I was safe for awhile, when I sold the pace car I still had a '94 S-10 SS, but got rid of it a little later and am really only "2SuperSports" right now.
