"Ruff-N-Ready" Oaks family

"The Fridge" My daily-driven, refrigerator white, 4,600 lb Ford Lightning truck, that runs 10.20s at 133.

"Cheap Thrills" John Bender's '67 E/SA Plymouth

"Dancin' Bear" Chip Baney "Sometimes you get the bear, sometimes the bear gets you."

My Daddy ran this Duster in Super Stock started in 1976 he always had JR on the Door because that was is name.(1st) Picture.

When he sold it Mid 1990s we ran Super Rod & Quick Rod (9.90& 8.90) and the whole car had change but still had JR on it.(2nd) Picture

Had a friend Don Shirley (R.I.P.) ran a roadster in Comp. elim back in the day called "HOG WASH" I asked him did that have any meaning, and he said " It's as close to Bull **** as you can get" at the time thought that was very funny. Plus it fits in this forum like a O.J. glove.

A couple that Wade Mahaffey mentioned.... Can't Stop Dancin', a good looking car, then and now.

Also to Mike Bassin, I remember Glen Rennie's "Snort", what a great name! I last saw that car in the late 70's in excellent condition at the Rennies' business. I would not be surprised if it is the same way today. He also had a jet boat with the same name.

As for names I always like Bob Bailey's "Missile Mouse".

Anyone else remember a corvette named "MIASSIS DRAGON" ?
I saw this car at the 1967 SPRINGNATIONALS. Never could forget the name.
