What nickname for the Model T is thought to have originated from a 1922 race in Pikes Peak where it was unfavorably compared to an old can?

During a 1922 race at Pikes Peak, Colorado, participant Noel Bullock named his Model T “Old Liz,” but its unkempt state made people compare it to a tin can, earning it the nickname Tin Lizzie. And the name stuck.
