Name the 20B NC Track Car

Postby Magpie » Mon Jul 14, 2014 12:11 pm

Unless you have been living under a rock you would know that Danny's 20B naturally aspirated car has come alive. However Danny is too busy to give it a name and has suggested that the forum suggest some.

So what should Danny name his car?

I don't see any harm in making suggestions but it's Danny's right to select which name suits before we all start using one and it sticks.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

"Roary" the Rotary?

FYI, Roary is teh main character in a kids show based on racing cars. Pretty much Bob the Builder but with cars.

'Turtle', a tongue in cheek reference to the exhaust.

When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

I vote "JLo", she goes alright, looks great, has a big-but-great arse and is going to be a diva (require lots of attention).

"Cubey" for the Cubic Dollars involved.

Or if No to Cubey as it's not really about cube's for power.

Someone put the useful ones into a poll. I think it's definitely the worlds
most nuts NC MX5 or at least right up there with the GT4 one and the Mad Mike one.

I think I'd go for Selene.
(as in Kate Beckinsdale's character from the Underworld series)

More than a little scary, absolutely unstoppable and oh so desirable! :mrgreen:

If it was up to me it would be boring like all the race cars I've had....

It would be "the Blue car"

Like my Zed was "the green car"

my first Zed was "the Blue car"

my 180BSSS was the "shitbox" or the "Ronald McDonald Car" if you saw it in it's last paint job

My Sports 1300 was just called the "clubman"

And the S14 will more than likely be "the white car"

I tend to have a few cars at one time so easy names based on colour or type are generally the go when talking about them.

My road cars tend to get more interesting names, like my old ZG was known as "the Behemoth"

And my fist charger had that much road presence, it was loud, low, lurched around corners, blew smoke and terrorised the area, it was just known as "the Charger"
