I guess mine is pretty self explanitory. It's where I'm from.

Motown = Motor City = Detroit

If you were alive in the 60s, you'd know the meaning behind my user name. It's a reference to an excellent British television series with one of my favorite actors, Patrick McGoohan.
Sometimes it doesn't come cheap...sometimes you get away with it.

TOR - Toronto (where I am!)
R35 - My dream car, and what got me into this hobby.

TOR + R35 = TOR35!

Yes yes, in about 5 years or so, I'll look back and experience that Damn-I-had-immature-usernames-and-email-addresses-back-then moment. But it will do for now. :)

My username is basically my name (which is never available as a username) with a one-letter shift to the right in the alphabet. Unfortunately, I misspelled it when I signed up for the site, so I ended up with something that's not quite what I wanted. Most people never get it anyway, but I like to know that I use some form of my name rather than some abbreviated, chopped, messed up version of my name with numbers added to it.

B -> A
E -> D
S -> R The one I forgot
J -> I
B -> A
O -> N
