Name the VX

So I'm trying to figure out a new name for the VX. So far my favorite is NOx. Ive started a new garage entry but would rather find a better name. Anyone care to offer up some ideas?

"master blaster."

I just saw a clip from Mad Max and I can't get it out of my mind.

It's red and it burns like crazy in the gas log.

How about "Quench II"?

I hated Thunderdome. Them kids were annoying, and what the hell is a Mad Max movie doing with a Pg13 rating?

Now the first Mad Max from 1979, that had musclecar porn, crotch rockets, and emphasized the importance of rugged individualism. That movie kicked ***.

Did they ever really explain what happened between Mad Max and Mad Max 2, or were we just supposed to understand that there was a nuclear war?

It was made very clear there was a nuclear war over the world's dwindling oil supplies through the trilogy, but it was never made clear specifically when it happened. It could have even been before or during the first Mad Max. There is a lot of dialogue in the first Mad Max that suggests a severe gasoline shortage and a need to conserve fuel. Even a scene where Toecutter's gang steals fuel from a tanker truck. Mad Max 2(The Roadwarrior) mentions in their introduction what amounts to WW3 and how nations fought each other until the wells ran dry. The Beyond Thunderdome mentions that the war was nuclear.

I like "moshi moshi"

Perhaps "onegaishimasu"

Possibly "douitashima****e"

Poignantly "mada mada dane"

Mada mada dane would be the best, it's a taunt that basically mean "not quite there yet" so basically "you suck, you and your 50mpg can drop dead."

Give it a manly sounding name, like "VXor", or "The Red Licker", if you've ever played them Resident Evil games. Or maybe name it "Bloodlust", cause it has the color and the name sounds totally sweet.
