My favorite "real" drag sedan name will always be Underdog

But what about thinking up new names... like if you were going to build a new gasser sedan... what would you name it?

I think Soylent Green would be cool.

Gotta love the mini tweeter pipe below the rear bumper on that Beetle. Perhaps the A.P.U. (Aux. Power Supply for all of you non-jet folks.) I suppose extensive measures were made, by adding a lot of sound deadening material, to ensure acceptable cabin noise levels, yes?

I always loved "Quarter Pounder", it's the perfect name for a drag beetle!

Here are my picks for when I build my flat (non-gloss) brown race VW:

1. Sewer Pickle
2. Faucet Arse
3. Growin' A Tail
4. Septic Salami
5. Toilet Tamale
6. Uncoilin' Some Rope
7. Takin' The Kids To The Pool

(ever get the feeling that you've just posted on the wrong thread?)

Fred, in Norway we say "Laying Cable"

I have made so many lists of gasser names, but my favorite right now is the new gasser of Folkevogn!!

Are you going to share it Folke?

Other favorites are "Schöne Mae" and "The hunted" and of course the future gasser of Rocket Racing, "Holly Letmolie"!

True, never thought about going the direct approach. Good point.
