In a recent thread a nickname was used by one poster and not known by another. It was suggested that we start a thread so that everyone might toss in a nickname of a driver, that way we'd all know who each of us is talking about. Even if it is a well known one ... by all means add it.

Now some of those names that you call them while your in your favorite chair watching NASCAR may not be appropriate for this PG rated site so we ask that you just keep that in mind.

Have at it.

Matt Kenseth = Silent Assassin

[LSC9901]

Tony = Smoke

Nemechek = Front Row Joe

Dale Sr. = Intimidator

D.W. = Jaws

Jimmy Spencer = Mr. Excitement

[SteelPhoenyx]

Richard Petty = The King (well, duh!)

David Pearson = The Silver Fox (?)

Jeff Gordon = Wonderboy, Rainbow Warrior, (Gordo)

Dale Jr. = Junior, June Bug, (The Irritator)

Kevin Harvick = Happy (the thing that started this thread I'm thinking)

[SpaceCadet]

Kenny Wallace - The Shy One (although that probably refers to his TV job as opposed to racing).

Jeff Gordon - The Rainbow Warrior, Wonderboy

Kyle Busch - Shrub

Juan Pablo Montoya - dubbed "Juablo" by our very own Bob Tanner

Dario Franchitti (soon to be NASCAR) - Mr. Judd

[SteelPhoenyx]

I've also heard of Juan Pablo as "Wall Problem"

This thread is hilarious!

Jaws? Never heard that one. But I shouldn't be surprised that it came from you, LSC!

"The Irritator"? You just made that up! How irritating!

You forgot Little E/Lil' E.

Thanks for that one. Could never figure out who Shrub was ... now I know. Clever nickname! Who came up with that one?

Naw, I didn't make it up. I saw it on a forum somewhere written by somebody that doesn't like Junior. I actually like the guy.

Well, obviously "Irritator" has no basis, and this guy/gal is probably 14. I've heard Jr. called many things, but never irritating.

GA! Another reason for me not to venture to other NASCAR forums! I'd get banned with my first post, and can't afford the medication to keep me from going postal!

Whew! Glad you didn't make it up!

Next? ...

I'll just assume that you aren't aware that "Shrub" is the name of a book that was written about our current president. Same name different spelling.
