There's two distinct camps - hotrodding/street racing......and track racing. I'm assuming your father did the latter?
Naw, they aren't just jerk-off buzz words. Saw a lot of Holley carbs, Cragar rims and Edelbrock manifolds on display today. Photographed some of the ones that caught my eye. Talked to one dude (and shot pics) who had 15" wide custom Cragar 5-spoke rims on his ride that he described as "one-offs" and cost him $400ea. - which I thought was actually a good price.
