- "Slider Petrolski's parents named him Slider after his uncle: famed dirt track racer Slide Powers who graced the gritty, makeshift tracks of the late forties. Aspiring to his namesake Slider started racing at an early age. He challenged postal trucks, taxis, delivery vans and all varieties of unsuspecting pedestrian motorists. He even raced a police car, but only once."[1]
