mixxer has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Chassis and Engine Name's

Teams quite often give a chassis a name (ie Elvis because of all the Hits/crash's) and I know in Drag Racing the person who used to freshen our BBChev for our altered used to give all his engines a name (our 1 was called Genie) and display them on the Rocker Covers.
So what other names are out there ?

William Dale Jr should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
From memory, HRT used to name their cars, or they did when Brock was still there, anyway. They had a Steffi, a Beth, and a few others that I can't remember.

Dick Johnson named one of his Sierras "the Eggenberger Eater" - the car he took over to Silverstone in 1988 for the TT to blow the works Eggenberger Sierras into the weeds.
