-
- Chipmunks - series 200's
- Bobcats - series 300's
-
- This is in the same era where s800 had names like: Indigo, Cheetah, TopGun,
- Firefox, SilverFox, SilverBullet.
-
- Boy you're really asking for it! There's so many names for different things
- it will drive you crazy.

- Here's some of the latest names I know of (and this is no where near complete):
-
- In the Snakes family there are:
- Coral
- King Cobra
- Bush Wacker
-
- All of the 8x7 family is referred to the Nova series. In this series
- there are also:
- SuperNova (857 I think)
-
- There is the Emerald (89X)
