    Default Need a name

    Looking for a cool name for a project vis-a-vis Lockheed Martin's "Skunk Works."
    "Special Projects Division," etc. Could be original or historical (bonus points from motorsports, double bonus from aviation)....gotta sound badass!

    I am not communicating very clearly what I am asking about. I know manufactures/team names fairly well, I am wondering if any of the auto/motorcycle manufacturers had fun names for their race/development programs? Not unlike Lockheed Martin's black-ops development program was called "Skunk Works" if that makes sense.
