P.S. Hatrack rose to the level of being a NASCAR Busch series crew chief, winning car builder, etc. But he still goes by Hatrack to this day.

Dave (Flash68) Gordon got a new nickname last weekend ... Cheeseball ... because Greg brought this OMG huge jar of cheeseballs to the track (must have been the size of a beer keg) ... and Dave couldn't stop eating them.

Dave's probably hoping that one doesn't stick to him like the fake cheese coloring did to his fingers. But typically nicknames stick until a better one comes along.

Of course when Cheeseball, Mike & I were up watching cars on track, I pointed out drivers braking so much they were almost "parking" their cars going into the Crow's Nest corner. I explained how I knew they were "parking" their cars ... because I saw the Sonic waitress rolling out on her skates to take their order.

Using that analogy, we'd need to name Greg "Drive Thru" because he was flying through the Crow's Nest. But I'm sure a situation will arise that leads to better one.

So Lance, if I was creating your nickname from the last video I watched, it would be either "sawdust" or "lumberjack."

I like yours better than "The Tasmanian Devil" that Charley started calling me after my first few "over rotations"....
