Sold on Lucifer!!!!!!! :-) After looking in Merriam-Webster at the definition
of Lucifer.

Lucifer - [ME, the morning star, a fallen archangel, the Devil, fr. OE,
fr. L, the morning star, fr. lucifer light bearing] : DEVIL, SATAN
                                     ^^^^^ ^^^^^^^
The part about light bearing sold me on this one.

I also had "Flipper" and "Sparky" for names submitted. Both of which
brought roars of laughter from the group I work with when they read the
mail message, especially "Sparky" as at least two of the group have seen
some wonderful fireworks from the car on occasion. Like when the
altenator disintegrated late one night.

I'm not sure but Andy Green asked for an address for sending royalty
payments for "Red Car", if memory serves correctly I think that was
Scott Fisher #1 that has "Red Car" which may also be his race car....


Thanks for all of the suggestions, T. J. Higgins won the door prize but
he has to come to Phoenix to get it :-) Which is a pint of the finest
English Ale.

Bruce...
