| so chad instead of getting a 400 dolla motor out in for 800 bucks wich =1200 total in the car you competed in early in the year when i saw you at p,aha doing a measly 154 with amps on 4 subs, and 16v that kevin pulled a 158 on at the previouse finals was a betetr deal for you to just by a plain Jain car from our team for what was it 2400 bucks i think I dont like you cause you a lier, and that make you a fornicating prick in my book. that car didnt have any equipment in it thats correct but had a ton of work done to it to the point that 2 l7's would have done a 157 plus at drop in easily those that have been to our shows know this is totaly possible on 2 kx 1200.1's nope you are correct 3 kx 1200.1's were not in 301-900 and never was but the idea was that you still had more power out of them MMATS, and thats what you should have done at finals. Estes im glad you stae how you feel bro, but fact being fact the s10 is in my possesion and will be at finals in 1 of 2 classes, and as long as it is in my possesion it will be used for 1 thing and thats to compete in. You will be ok man there is obviousely a better build out there another s10 can do 159.4 on 1 500 watt amp, and 3 15's where mine will only do 158.6 so no worries man yall got me even with it having someone elses build in it stop sweating it. | |

| I voted build. I dont think you're a loser if you buy, you can always improve on something someone else has already done. The problem I've seen though is that buying normally requires more work when you find out how the previous owner did certain things that just aren't up to par and you end up rebuilding the whole thing yourself anyway.
On another note, lets keep this clean please. | |

I dont like you cause you a lier, and that make you a fornicating prick in my book. that car didnt have any equipment in it thats correct but had a ton of work done to it to the point that 2 l7's would have done a 157 plus at drop in easily those that have been to our shows know this is totaly possible on 2 kx 1200.1's nope you are correct 3 kx 1200.1's were not in 301-900 and never was but the idea was that you still had more power out of them MMATS, and thats what you should have done at finals. So now i'm a liar in addition to being a cheater? I'd like to know how I'm lying as well as how I'm a cheater since you never did answer that one either, not even in pm's. As for my other crx not being loud and me having to buy a new one to be loud, when you saw me at that show last year in July that was the first show I had been to since finals 03, and 1 show early 04. At 03 finals I took second in stock and prostock and held 2 world records that year, if you remember that was the year of the vfl 150.1 at finals, and about 90% of the people that placed in the top 3 of all the stock classes at finals had that amp, I did not, i was underpowered to say the least and still did well. Add that with my car having all the rear panels and carpet in means it could have been louder. I just brought it out last year to start getting points with what I had since I was once again able to compete. What I had was old technology though, 02 L7's in a box built to play 57hz on the audiocontrol, so still a 155 on an old Gluteus Maximus design built for the old sysytem in a car that hadnt competed in over 2 years, decent if you ask me. Point here is, I was just getting started back in it and getting points for last year, hadnt touched the car since 03, and up to that time last year, that was a decent score for that setup(knowing it had all the free db's in there with the panles in, too big of box and tuned wrong) Now back to last year, the motor blew in Jul as well as my car getting broke into and most of my stuff stolen and I only had 15 of my 200 points to get to finals, the shops around here quoted me 1800 to fix it, plus parts and engine, so it was cheaper to get a new crx and just throw a bucnh of stuff I had sitting around in it to get points. You will see my old one loud again someday once it gets a motor and a few windows in it, so in all actuality from what I was quoted it was much faster and easier to get the new crx, there was no way I had time to wait a month or however long it might have taken them to fix it to get points, especially with there being no shows up here late last year, so I bought jeffs But back on point again, I'd like to know what the ton of work the new one had done to it to make it so loud compared to other crx's, you seem to have learned and know everything there is to know about my car in the short 2 months it was a L&C car, all that was done was the dynamat and power wire, which I took out the power wire to properly run it with a gromet and fix the hole from the passenger kick into the front outside wheel well so it would stop leaking water. Maybe you guys figured out it needed to be tuned this way, or the vents had to be like that, or the seats like this to do a better number, but none of that info was included on the title when i bought the car. Heck if you want to talk about the car more, when I bought the car it wasnt even legal for the stock classes, now I dont know if you guys ran it that way down there nor do I care, I'm not saying that, just stating that the way I got it, it wasn't even legal for the stock classes so that was the first thing I fixed so nobody would call me out on it. And as for me not being able to get it to a 60 last year, ask Bruce what it could do if he got down in there all the way in the kick, I didnt need to up my score any on my rerun because I had already won so he didnt get all the way in there, so yeah, it still had more in it even at finals. So would you like to share once and for all with everyone: #1 How I'm a cheater? Just figured I'd throw that back out there again since it never was answered the first time and since now I'm a liar as well it be good to know how. No one has yet to tell me how I am a cheater, just that I am one. #2 How am I a liar? and fianlly #3 Would you like to share with everyone what all this stuff is you do to a crx that makes it so much louder than any other crx before you even put equipment in the car? I'm sure everyone would like to know the answer to that question whether the own a crx or not. Heck I've showed picture of the car and striped it myself more than once and I didn't see any special work done to it to make it any differant or louder than any other crx. |

| you were pointed put at a show by the director to a competitor thats how you are a fuckign cheater now lier as stated before that car was already loud when you got it jeff just is hard headed at times and didnt wanna listen to bruce from his own acknowledgment sharing information wont happen anymore you put a end to that by being a dickhead and not acknowledging the fact that you received helped from our team thats why it got heated in the past and is again. i dont do anything to a crx to get it loud our team does its not an individual sport for us but a team sport, and as you an see i give credit to samsal for the truck, and the things he ahs helped me out with so far this is how a true competitor should be but i cant dawg you for being you. ill be at your show this weekend any heart ache aproach me and lets chat about it but ill tell you this now and im going to be respectfull if you have let your wife get brought into this in anyway do not send her over to talk poop to me for this will not be a very good deal im not saying your a puss and would do this, but it would not be productive the leash should be tight. ill ensure mine is as well. I do plan on attending a good show, and having fun no matter what form fun comes in. see you sunday | |

thats still not how i cheated, all that is saying is still back to what i said before, that someone said i was heating, but not how, so still, what did i do to cheat? and if that is in fact true, where was i when this happened, why did the director at whatever show i was at tell me i was cheating or point it out to me, or if i'm right about who this said competitor was, then he got 2nd place at the show, why has he never mentioned it to me, i'm sure if i was in fact cheating at said show, and the director of that show know i was cheating, and the second place guy talked to the director knows i was cheating, then why didnt either of them talk to me. but still you have not told me how i actually cheated, just that i did, so i'll ask again, how did i cheat? i'm sure you have all the details and your info is correct since you were 4000 miles away when this show happened kinda of null point though since i only did a measly 56.2 at the show and people are complaining cause i can do over a 58 in that class no problem but i'd still like to know what i actually did, where your proof is and who all these alleged people are, other wise your still just saying stuff with no facts to back anything up |

the car was loud before i bought it and so that makes me a liar? well if your definition of a loud car is one that has a stock honda battery in it, no head unit, no box, no batteries in the back, no subs, no amps, no rca's, no headliner, no rear view mirror, no visors, no detailed instructions on how to build it, but does have power wire in it and dyanamat, if that fits the defintion of a loud car then i guess i am in fact a liar. |

| to buy are build dont matter as long as you love this sport ALMA WROTE THIS TO ME....
The PPI bronco that set all the records was built at the PPI facility here in Phoenix. And yes, I did help with the install. I cannot take the credit for the design or the install, but my son Patrick and I did help build it.
Rick Jones was the brains behind that one and we had the help of many of the people at PPI. That bronco was a true labor of love. We all had something to prove - that we could build the loudest, and most beautiful and legal spl vehicle ever...and we did!
I was not able to help with the Kicker or JBL. The Kicker install was not right and never did do anything. We did get a lot of publicity from it and was in many magazines and Ripleys believe it or not. The JBL install did take first place in sq at finals.
Thanks for asking. By the way, I don't think its important who builds your system ( as long as you give them credit for the install,) but what you do with it after you get it. | |
