Streit Racing new tow vehicle/HQ needs a name!
 
We got tired of many hot and cold nights in the 4-runner, hotel bills, and general unpleasentness of loading the truck to the brim every other weekend, so the new Streit Racing party HQ is here:

She tows our 911 race car (now on topic)

She needs a name and we need suggestions. The winner of the contest may or may not see their idea on the side of the vehicle, hearty congratulations, etc..

How about Mick?

maxnine11 06-30-2003 06:22 PM

if it is the 460 cu. in. version, you will probably call it "Slurpy" ;) max

JeremyD 06-30-2003 06:27 PM

Can I have two chances? Let's see - you're from the Chicago area = so how about "The Fridge" Looks like it has the aerodynamics of a refridgerator...

Would you sleep in a "Mick"?

How about Rhiannon?

How about "Easy" as in Streit?

Seriously, I hope you enjoy your motorhome/tow vehicle as much as our family enjoys ours. We have an Airstream Land Yacht ("Big Fred") that totes the Targa on an open trailer very nicely. Also used for family outings, tailgating, etc.

Best advise is change fluids often, esp. transmission, when towing. Oh yeah, and the holding tanks, too! ;)

Zeke 06-30-2003 07:45 PM

Wow! Did you get batteries with that upholstery? I'd name it Jimi as in Hendrix. He used to have a shirt made out of that material, right?:D

MarkP 06-30-2003 07:53 PM

I'm with Tim, "Easy Streit".

Chris, did you see my new logo?

cstreit 06-30-2003 07:57 PM

Zeke, we laughed our a$$ off at that... Man RV stylin' just aint what I would have expected... We'll start by replacing the MAUVE carpeting with something a little less Sonny Crockett... Curtains go next... Then we'll see....

Thing is, unless you buy one of the modern supercoaches, that's what yah get...

Worst part is if you ever looked at the 70's/80's models. Lots of brown/orange shag carpet, wood paneling, Ooof!

"The Fridge"... Hmmm... I'm interested.
"Bessie" with a 460CID motor, sounds like the pig it'll be...
"Hilde" sounds vaguely German too!....
"Mick" Now WATCH it... :D
"The F'ing"...LOL, could be in contention...
"Chili Palace?"

cstreit 06-30-2003 08:00 PM

I'm with "Easy Streit" except that "Streit" is pronounced like "Strite" rather than "Street"... (That's how I know when telemarketers call, they always ask for "Street"... Mr Street is NEVER home, Mr. Strite always is.)


MarkP... I did and I DIG IT!

cstreit 06-30-2003 08:04 PM

In fact, that may be the next part of the contest. I need a new logo for "insert name here" and Streit Racing because this one is just too boring...

Well, you could name is "Eisy" (pronounced eye-zee).

You also need to take the color scheme from the interior and do an MSAddiction-style paint job on your car...

cstreit 06-30-2003 08:14 PM

THose chairs are kind of Jackson Pollock like...

How about "Jackson"?

Wait, can I vote in my own contest?

jyl 06-30-2003 08:38 PM

How about "CAYENNE"?

For those who get it, they'll get it.

For the others, you can tell them "Rocinante" was taken.

Eagle 5...........

Quoting from the Spaceballs script: The Eagle 5 is a Winnebago with wings. BARF is eating ice cream and dancing to music. BARF is a mog. He's half man, half dog. LONE STARR is at the wheel, asleep. LONE STARR is drunk. He is a normal human.

Now who is Barf and who is LoneStarr

Kemo 07-01-2003 05:58 AM

Ill chime in with "Big Bertha" or simply "Bertha" or maybe even "Boxcar Bertha"

for some reason...Bertha brings to mind a rather stout woman, possibly German, who doesnt take alot of crap.

Schuey 07-01-2003 06:48 AM

well you have a "P" theme going with the cars, so I say
