Potentially genius insult for a Russian/east Slavic man.
Uses the patronymic system of 'Father's first name + '-ovich' or '-evich'' applied to the Russian word 'suka' ('bitch') to literally mean 'son of a bitch'. Could also be used as an insult towards women by using '-ovna' or '-evna'.
Verb. To "pulled a Strovich" is to mistakenly register for two iRacing endurance sessions happening concurrently, one as a driver for one team, and another as a crew chief for a different team. This results in the disqualification of the team you intended to drive for, due to the conflict of registrations. The situation requires a specific blend of absentmindedness and iRacing expertise, often attributed to a certain "blonde" level of chaos.
"He pulled a Strovich! Registered as a driver for our team, then signed up as a crew chief for someone else. We got DQ'd, and he had to watch us race without him."

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. PenguinBooks,1992. p. 38)
