    Cars have to "earn" a name for it to count. Like Frieburger's F-Bomb, or the Bezerkely.

    My Neon R/T is named Serenity, like the ship. Same reliability level as that ship as well.

    My friends named my E30 track car "Coffin" after looking at my weight reduction techniques (including removing frame rails ahead of the control arm, all the metal under front fenders, and using 3/4 tubing as a steering column.

    It doesn't count because I survived. The joke is on them.

    If it were truly a Bucket list for participation, then the Isle of Man TT would be on it. Yes, it would kill me, but better than than being unplugged.

    Every one of you who haven't, owe it to yourselves to do the GRM at Daytona experience. For $$ to fun ratio, as a spectator, I have never been more entertianed. That really is the best bang for buck you can get.
