well I may be repeating others but since Delica's climb so well I thought of using a goat collective name.
A Trip of Delica or a Tribe of Delica both sound good to me. Here is where I got the info from http://www.hintsandthings.co.uk/kennel/collectives.htm

I could see a "tribe of Delica drivers" ~ but I think the Delicae are above tribe, personally.dfnder wrote:well I may be repeating others but since Delica's climb so well I thought of using a goat collective name.

A "delta of Delicas"? I still like "cete" (pronounced "set", as in "cetane").

In an onomatopoeic vein, how about "Rumble" of delicas? And some of you might relate more to "Frustration" of delicas 
Or conversely, "Amour" of delicas 
I'll always think "Pack" though, they're just so dog-like to me

On that vein, how about a "Harmony" of delicas from a group of Hummingbirds - funny that 'cause their ornery little devils - nothing harmonious about them at all, always bickering and fighting! A little like us sometimes I suppose...

I just had a thought. I was looking at the Miss Lil' Bitchi from the front and I was studying how the mirrors looked like the floppy ears of pigs. Then suddenly I saw her as an Asian Pot Belly Pig... cool. So how about a "drove" of Delicas? Drove of pigs ~ drove of Delicas. "Oh look... here comes a drove of Delicas, driving down the road... Delicas like to play in the mud ~ seems reasonable to me....
