Hank needs a name!
« on: January 20, 2013, 11:15:52 PM »
For all of you that have been reading and commenting on my build I really appreciate it! Trying to come up with a name for the car and it seems only fitting that everyone who has shown so much support and given me so much guidance be involved! So, what say you land speed racers? Let me here your ideas! And thank you all! Through this community I have been able to get my car going and will hopefully see you all in August!  :cheers:

I don't know how long you and Hank have been together but I find that the names come easier after the car has been able to develope a "Personality"

Although Henry is a very good idea, being the car is a Henry J, I was hoping for "Super Duper Rocket Machine" or something like that.  :-D

Midget! That's awesome!! Looks like we have a leader! Did I mention the best name will get an ice cold barley pop at Speedweek? Courtesy of yours truly!  :-D

Doc, I think you should change option 4 to "Too much money in the Hank"!

And I'll hold my tongue on the "Purple Dirt Missile" comment!  :evil:

And Doc's option 5 sounds like a childrens book! Hank and Jimmy go to Bonneville to fight the evil Mr. Drag and his sidekick Lack of Aero!
