[quote user="Overmod"] While we're at it: we might as well remember that 'hot-rod' is from a railroad source. A 'hotrod runner' was an engineer who went so fast or so hard ... or stopped his train so seldom for oiling maintenance ... that the rods would heat up.  Logical to extrapolate this to non-conformists interested in running at high speed in other contexts...[/quote] That is very interesting.  I had not thought about it lately, but I know that I have at times wondered what "hot rod" actually referred to as applied to cars.
