what does your username stand for?

[fiercefoxie]

Zonedriven sports. If you chunk disc you already know. If not, it's the marketing team behind the most prestigious disc golf tournament in the world.

[MENTION=79311]zonedriven[/MENTION], I play disc golf and I never heard of it. I am an Innova gal.

And my name is derived from a weight lifting group for women I am a part of. We always tell one another "that's fierce" and Foxie is for my love of Fox motorsport (although I do not dirt bike or even keep up with it, I like their clothing line.)

My first car was a BMW (now before you go and say spoiled brat...it was a 1985 735i bought at an auction for $2K...it was a pile) ever since then I have been a big BMW fan and one of my favorite BMW's is the 2002. Since the BMW forum I first signed up for "bimmer2002" was taken, I just took the "e" out of it and so I use that name for all other forums.

should have got a 750... lol.

I love those. just bought one a few weeks back!

my username? no one could EVER possibly guess that one.

 

[Driftinfc]

Back in the day I did a little drifting in my fc rx7, have since turned my attention to building my runner and getting married. Sad... I neglect the thing

[the great him]

its an old nick name i got when i first started turning wrenches, i was just a kid at the time, working in a tire shop, doing mount, ballance, rotaion and flat repairs ect. then left that at 21 and moved up working on cars in a legit shop. started off and shop bi*ch and errand boy, then assistant tech to the lead tech in the shop/ drive-ability tech, then full tech, in a independent german car shop/tuner. i left that job shortly after the tech position to go be an assistant tech again, this time working on fleet vehicles(ambulances)... anyhow all of these places i was the youngest guy(except for maybe the tire shop), but was defiantly young looking, so i got the nick name, and i would always get the same one at every new job, it was like i had it tattooed on my forehead or something -im sure it helped that i have always looked younger than i am(still get carded from time to time). and now that im in the military(oddly enough i was one of the "old guys" when i went though basic training at 24) the unit im in i still get called that cause everyone thinks im like 21 or 22... so i get called that by those guys as well... crusty old bastards -i love you guys!

anyhow thats the story behind my name, im not a kid any more though, have kids of my own now. pretty soon im gonna get called gramps...

 

[1engineer]

My username? I drive trains? No? How about I pick up trash for a politically correct company? No again? Hmmm, how about I build engines and have big ears? (engine-ear) Just give me a minute, I will think of something....

I was an engineer at a very early age. When we were just mere lads (age 7-8) I was the guy who all the kids came to for designing bike ramps out of cinder block and 2X6's, any fort or tree house, etc. When I was in my early teens I was the guy that could fix about anything from cars to radios. I decided to make that my career, took only vo-tech classes in high school with no math higher than basic Algebra and so I became a body man and worked in a shop until my early 20's. I got married and my new bride (been with her 30 years now) told me I was in the wrong career and paid to have me take the ACT and SAT or whatever they called it back in the day. Scored high and four and a half really hard, lean years later I was an engineer. My wife basically supported me and put me through school on her salary. I worked nights and weekends painting cars, tinting windows and doing custom work like lifts, sunroofs and the like. She shouldered the load though. Funny thing though when I got my first job out of college as a "bona-fide" engineer I made only half of what I made as a body man! Didn't last long though. So now you guys have my life story.

[cbielat]

My name

 

[Dawg4Runner]

Originally got the 4Runner to transport the dog. Somewhere along the way it also became an off-road play rig. It's primary purpose is still carting the dog around.

 

[drdolittlerwc]

Well.... I'm certainly no DOCTOR!! :iagree:

But, since I was a kid I've loved the movie Dr. Dolittle (the original), and I love all sorts of animals, and for the most part they seem to love me too. Kinda quirky... anda:

Though, I seem to have trouble with some humans... :der:

 

[Ghost SS]

When I was younger I did a lot of stupid things, and my mom always said I wouldn't live to see 25. Also I was driving a white Camaro SS, pictured in my sig, so my friends starting calling my car Casper and it slowly changed to calling me Ghost. Ghost was taken on this board and others, so ocassionaly I have to register as Ghost SS. Over the years other meanings have been added to my nickname Ghost. I am mexican but light skinned so my friends say that is another reason they call me Ghost. Also I love hot sauce. I have a pantry shelf full of different hot sauces from around the world, and since the Ghost Chili Pepper is a big thing in the hot sauce world now my friends say that is another reason they call me Ghost.

 

[asimdada]

My first name and.....DADA is 'The Don' in Urdu language (I know its cheesy but i've used this name almost everywhere since I was a kid

 

[Hepar]

It was my buddies nickname for me growing up. No idea on the origins. You'd have to ask him.

 

[Limbwalker]

Limbwalker= Arborist/tree climber, though some of my friends thought it had more to do with 15 years in Jiu Jitsu lol... works either way I guess

 

[Limbwalker]

Converge kicks ass. That is all.

I couldn't figure out a screen name, so I just picked a song title from this band called Converge that I've been listening to since I was ten. Big musical influence in my life and got me into metal/hardcore and pushed limits of my drumming (16 years). The number 11 has no significance.

 

[Dirtyfingers]

Okay I'll give my name the orgins, it all started when I was about 9 or 10 my dad had this old jeep wrangler that he was restoring and I stuck my hands into the carburetor he had laying on the work bench and my hands were black after messing with it for a little bit. He said "son, you and those dirty fingers of yours, ill make a mechanic outta you yet" haha he was right. I love being an engineer in the Navy and to this day I get balls deep into an engine and I got dirtyfingers.

 

[piccrazy30]

I LOVE photography...lightning most of all....made the name when I was 30. Half of the reason for the 4R was to be able to sit in the back with the window down with the tripod and be more protected from the storm then standing out in it!!!!!
