Re: Car Name Memories
Continuing the "RAT" theme, at Mission Raceway in the 70s, there was a 396 66 Chevelle with "Aristo-RAT" lettered on the doors. Other locals included "Suddenly", "Blue Heaven" Last Chance" "Sweet Revenge", "Street Kleaner", "Frantic Affair", "Kid Dyno Mite", "Catch 22", "Rapid Rickshaw", "Tantrum", "Infinity", "Green Mosquito", "Blue Bolt", "Gold Rush" and "Fido Wagon" , among many others. Even if you didn`t know who the owner or driver was, chances are the car name stuck in your head. Obviously some stuck in mine!

Re: Car Name Memories
The "Monster Mash" car was probably my favorite in my younger days.
