Good question Kool! Well back in the mid 1960's when this type of racecar was in its conception they were classified "A/FX" and some very odd styles began to appear. Racers and fans began to comment how odd or "funny" looking they were and the term funny stuck to this day. As for the bodys on these cars some are fiberglass but the majority now are made of carbon fiber. I hope that was a clear explanation thanks!
