My gal names her cars. The racing Miata is Charlene. She now also has an '03 Z-06 that we will be racing in SCCA Super Stock Solo racing.

We're not in a hurry. A Name will "appear."

Do you name your cars? Suggestions?

She feels her Z-06 is male ... which unfortunately means she doesn't want to use KittiZ ... a name that shes used in various contexts.

I originally called my 01 Z Zoe, but now she is known as Ornage Krush...

And it is a she, because anything with curves like the C5 Z has to be female.

Curvaceous ... but she's thinking more like a male body builder ... perhaps especially with over sized 295/315 R tires ...

i have mine and i assume that my car z is a male considering the fact that i had its color changed from grey to a little darker. His name is Leeteuk from a korean boy band. anyway just this monday i discovered six drilled holes on the underside of my new corvette. the dealership and general motors says that they do not know how the holes got there. i think that the holes were drilled by the dealership or general motors in order to "fix" a problem with the radio. (holes drilled to access wires) has anyone else discovered holes drilled under theirs

?

Yes I did name my car. HER name is Too Much Fun! That would not fit on the plate, so I shortened it to 2MchFun.

Lorene -

to the site! BTW -There are keys on your keyboard with the word "shift" and an arrow on them. They are our friends

My Z's name is black beauty after the stallion. The Lone Ranger's horse was named Silver," Hi ho Silver,away"

***MikesZ06*** · 10-12-2009, 01:51 PM

Named mine 'Spot'.

Easy to remember

Still breaking my Z in, but at 300 miles I got on it in 2nd gear. Around 4000 rpms it felt as though "RAGE" came from the engine, so it was named. RAGE!
I kicked around Rogue as well, but rage is definitely what I felt.

This is probably not the thread to ask your question in if you need some answers. Try starting a new thread in the Grandstand section and you may have more luck.

I affectionately call my LeMans Blue Z "Blue BEAST".

Inked Anarchist · 10-21-2009, 01:27 AM

I named mine "Ronin." Japanese for "samurai with no master."

Looks like Daniel is it ... after Karen's dad. She feels the cars personality is a good match and a nice tribute to her father. Sunday is going to be my first SCCA SS Solo race with it ...

The "Blue Bullet" and "Hers".

Makofoto · 10-26-2009, 01:03 PM

... had a nice first race with "Daniel." Came in 3rd, behind the two series leaders, out of nine drivers.
