Etymology

The term 'fanging' originates from Australian slang, evolving in use throughout the late 20th century. Initially associated with motorcycles and extreme sports, it captures the sense of speed and excitement that comes with high-velocity driving. The roots of the word can be traced back to 'fang', which generally denotes sharp teeth in animals, metaphorically implying a fierce or intense action like speeding. By the early 2000s, 'fanging' gained popularity among youth and subculture communities, especially in relation to outdoor sports and vehicle enthusiasts, highlighting a carefree and adventurous spirit.
