    Not that fast of a mode of transportation (hint, you are right, they hadn't changed their name yet)
    And too specific on the the woman (and its plural).

    Almost there!

    @Mustang_Susie ,
    well done,
    and soooooooo close

    I'll let it stew a little longer before I start with hints

    (brava on the formula one, I only now realized my image had an error in the calculation..(should read Σ(1..10) )

    Hot For Teacher is Van Halen. David Lee Roth is the singer of the red song (I think), but I know very little of his solo work.

    Thanks, Billy :)

    Okay, I was in the midst of singing this song in the car (because I know every. single. lyric), when we pulled into the driveway at home and my 12 year reached over and turned off the radio >:(
