Name game: Pick the names for AOPA’s Rally teams
March 25, 2010 by Jill W. TallmanWe’ve picked the two teams, each with a pilot and a driver, that will dash from Frederick Municipal Airport in Frederick, Md., to Sun ’n Fun in Lakeland, Fla., in AOPA’s Road and Runway Rally. Now we need to name those teams, and we need your help!
AOPA Director of eMedia Alyssa J. Miller and Wired.com Correspondent Jason Paur will team up against Flight Training Deputy Editor Ian J. Twombly and Motor Week Associate Producer Steven Chupnick. One team will fly AOPA’s Fun to Fly Remos, and one will drive a sporty Mercedes-Benz SMART car—and the teams will switch midway.
But we can’t send them on their way April 10 until we have a name for each team. Tell us your ideas!

Jill,
Hope you’re doing well.
Why not have the Mercedes Smarties racing against
the Remos Hearties. If you look up Hearties, there are several definitions, all good ones!
Looking at the vehicles, I think there may be more room in the Remos.
Hope everyone has a great time!
