What does your username mean?

Hey guys, we had this thread, but I cant find it (techtard) So, here goes again. We were all at the GSM run having a ball and Kim (Lance's wife) asked who's that? and we'd say that's Homade, or Old Uhaul or whatever. So then she'd ask yeah, whats their real name? We didnt know most of their real names or what some of their names were from. Some of you cats we've got to know first hand and know what your usernames mean and the faces/trucks behind the names. But some of you we dont know what your usernames mean and neither do some of the new users.

So, I thought we could start this to kind of fill in the blanks. I'll go ahead and tell mine first. I am such a techtard that when I tried to register that I messed it all up and it wouldnt let me back up. Then it said that there was already a user with the name of Trucks1956 (spelled correctly) so I had to start all over again and I used the Truxx spelling and the 1956 of course is cause I'm so into 1956 F100's. Some of your usernames are pretty well understood, but some of them are not.

Thanks guys

My handle is supposed to be RACERJIM, a name I used for years on R/C car boards that I used to frequent when I was a factory driver. I posted a lot, like all newbs under RAERJIM, having accidentaly left out the "C". I didn't want to lose my post count so I left it.

Thanks for the information Sam, I don't want to start over as a , so I will leave it as is. Some times I get confused on the other sites as to which name I am supposed to use.

When I was a kid in boy scouts, my dad and I made a pine-car for our troop's derby. After I painted the body of the car, he got a small can of silver paint and put a line of "chrome trim" down its side. At the rear end of the trim he wrote in small letters _______Zitro_ as the model's name. I didn't get it at first, and when I asked him what it ment, he said it's our last name spelled backwards. We won the derby that year, I've used it ever since.

Mine is pretty obvious.

I found this site when I first got my '52.
I have since added a '59 F100 as well as have several not covered by this fourm.

Being part Cherokee and Choctaw Indian (very little) I have always had a fascination
with Native Americans. I did a lot of research in school on Sitting Bull and the battle of Little Bighorn and someone called me Lakota and it just kinda stuck. I was going to use it on this forum but it was already in use so I just added 53 for my truck year.

The 3golfjack came from when I was on the golf course a few years ago with my three sons, I ran into a old buddy of my and the first thing he said was I see you got your three little golf jacks with you. So when I had to have a username that popped in my mind, I just left the little out. The Jack part is my first name.
