Like the title says...explain your screen name.
I'll start, I like Grand Prix's a lot, and I am a "Chief" Warrant Officer in the U.S. Army.....GPChief.
Baker is my last name
Bake is a nickname i've had for ever.
82 was a hockey # when I was 13 and first created my hotmail email.
bake82 is my online name for every forum I'm on..it has just stuck. Along with 82 being my racing #
Dark Ride = It sounded cool when I joined W-body five years ago. I have changed my name on W-body now to Mitch R (which I don't think requires an explanation) but never changed it on the other forums.
My name is my name and what I drive :laugh:
My dad used to send me up and down the east coast picking up cars he bought. I always drove at night and rarely did the speed limit, So they started calling me flybynite..
My name came from my car being so slow when I bought it and of course it is a red 1990. My new aol screenname is TGPXPRESS caus enow it runs fairly quick. LOL
i killed too many GPs.
kuntzie... been called it aslong as i remember, last name is kuntz, kuntize is just better hahah
Well when i was like 11, i played Need for speed III online, and i was pretty good, so i picked prospeeder, and it stuck for a screen name.
My Screen name is actually my License plate for my tgp which the word intercool without the vowels so I could fit the seven letters that still made sense

"m" = matt, "fewtrail" = alternative spelling & the pronunciation(not the technically correction pronunciation, but it is how we say it... :laugh:) of my last name(Futrelle).
Grinders is actually a weird story. In middle school, our gym teacher would make us put on fist on the gym floor, then run around in circles as fast as you could. Not sure what the point was, but I always cheated and whenever he turned his back I stopped. All the other guys were either jealous or wanted to get me in trouble so they'd started spewing out "GRINDERS!!!" really obnoxiously, hoping that the teacher would hear.
The 18 is my birthdate, July 18th. A very lucky number for me.

23 sounds about right for it to kick in. I picked up my 2nd TGP @ 23, but have since turned 24(last month). :laugh: I'll probably end up with a few more of them later on...
Wow I am a late bloomer to the TGP experience then at the old age of 35 HAHA
i dont think i could sleep if i had to maintain 7 TGPS... 2 is enough for me!
I'm off to a bad start.. I'm 18 and I've had 3 GPs so far :laugh:

mine is just what i have, a 1990 grand prix STE Turbo
and im 19 and have owned 3 grand prix's
1993 Grand Prix SE (hence why my name on w-body, 60degreev6, and clubgp is 93grandprixse)
1990 Grand Prix STE Turbo
1997 Grand Prix GTP (Totaled, which turned out to be a good thing because i was thinking about selling the ste turbo, but decided not to when it got totaled, which i am glad that happened... my ste is my baby)
