So I am making one of these for my sons school:

2015-10-hpv-first-4-hpvs.jpg

 

 

Actually I am heavily modifying an older one to make it faster and lighter, but anyway,  The Program coordinator  has asked if I can give it a name, I was thinking of calling it "evil moose" (for obvious reasons).  But that doesn't really sound that good to me.  Can I have your suggestions as to what it should be called,  the other two vehicles the school will be racing are called Nigel and Buff nuggets.  

 

As well as building it, I am thinking of sponsoring the team.  This will mean I can put a sticker on the side.  Any cool ideas?

I have always thought some of those things look like cryochambers lying on their side. Could reference futurama and call it Space Pilot 3000

Paint it black and green and call it Cool Runnings. Or... how about Talulla?

Call it Bob

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

Buff nuggets.  

You would not know that I am a 26 year old mature adult by how hard I just laughed at that

When I was in HS we built supermileage cars. Similar concept, but used a 2.4hp Briggs, it was a ton of fun.
