in short

CLpower kept bickering with Soppa.

Adrienne?AngelCL and CLpower kept whoreing eachothers threads, and lots of other peoples at one point.

I guess Soopa just plain got tiered of it.

Hey Casper i was wondering where you went to. I was actually thinking of taking a break from the board because it was getting old. Anyway CLPower and Angel did get banned for excessive bickering and stuff or maybe soopa was just jealous those two got together
Your car sounds like its coming along nicely Depending on where you are (forgot to look at location) i would like to see it and support you and you CL

actually, you've got it all wrong, soopa and CLpower got in a fight cause CLpower said the chrome wheels soopa liked looked ridiculous on the car. Soopa didn't agree, angel stuck up for CLpower and in short banned them both

if you read up on the threads it goes back way farther than that. the incident with the wheels was just the last thinf that happened. there is definately a history there.

well actually, there isn't much history of it, and the final straw was the AEM thread. A man should be able to take what he dishes out, obviously soopa could not.

Yeah he did ask for it, multiple times. You should have seen some of the stuff he used to do. The pic he posted one night in ramblings was the worst and got him a temp ban. You remember that Iridium?

Hey Casper, welcome back. I used your Ghost emblem idea and hand cut (took a long time) some Scotchlite "ACURA"s for the sides. Very subtle.

You are still the original ghost though.

peace,

Nomad

OMG, you guys crack me up. With the exception of possibly Iridium and 1StGenCL, you guys don't know the HALF of it, so don't even try to speculate. You really think Adam (soopa) would ban someone over rims?? Please..... There's a long drawn out history on that whole situation.


Casper... what's up buddy?? I was just talking about you with MauiWowie wondering where you were. Good to see you back!! Yeah, there have been some changes, but the same old questions still pop up here and there. Not much you can do though. New faces = same ole questions!! Glad you're back here though b/c your knowledge is definitely an asset on this board. Can't wait to see some pics of your ride.....

OK, enough of this bickering... they're banned and that's that.

Keep it on the topic of Casper or it gets closed....

hey all...

First and foremost.. this is my thread... I asked for the the update, not the soap opera.. this is a prime example as to why I stopped writing on the board.... I spoke with Adrienne directely so your other imput is NOT needed on that subject!!!!

Juniorbean.. whats up dawg? hows the type-S treating you? My bros is getting similar work done to his as mine is... we will be 2 bad ass brother ACs in mags....lol You gotta swing down and chill.. you are the most local invisible person there is!!!! and btw.. thanks for the compliment on the information i share with all of you... I just try and help with what i can... nothing more than the next!!!

RMStoico... whats up? must be nice to own the shop huh!? keep it up... as for IASCA... we are actually not completely signed up because you have to have all specs on system when they are complete... but The CD is all we need to get... the rule book I believe is with Registration... I think its $120.00 now... I may be wrong.. we'll see though!!!

Nomad.. glad that it worked for you... I am out of the graphics business so I couldnt do much for you anymore... and atleast you recognize who the OG (original ghost) is.. lol talk soon....

Kiljaedon.... you better be there... do you always go??? I heard is insane.. we have 2 maybe 3 cars competeng.. I may be under team Phoenix Gold.... I have some new equipment from them thats not released yet so they may pick me up on the team for tuning and the amount of $$$ i spent on their equip.... besides the are the only ones who can tune there shit Right!!!! so Ill see you there....

Damn i wrote alot... keep sharing the love... no more BS about adrienne!!!! LATERZ

um, casper, you want the rulebook way before you start installing anything into your car. the rulebook will lay out the correct way to install everything (correct by iasca standards, which can be overkill). and i dont want anyone telling me they know how to do it because they did it for their buddy's car! there are many ridiculous things required by iasca to win anything in sq or sq+. did you know your power wire needs to be secured to the floor of your vehicle every 6 inches!!!! you will need pics of absolutely everything too.

last time i checked the rulebook was $40. told you they go up. the more you compete in iasca the more you will either love it or hate it. i hate it for a few reasons:

1. iasca has changed many rules over the years, one being you would get points for stickers of sponsors on your car. this is stupid and holds no value in true car audio competition.

2. it is so big, and every car audio store can enter their demo against normal people's car the first year in the novice category. unfair, and unregulated.

3. nationals are based on a points system throughout the year, which means you can have the most perfectly centered soundstage in all of the country, but you wont win the big one if you dont travel all year to sanctioned iasca shows to compete. again, this limits your ability to win a car stereo comp by eliminating people who cant travel every weekend.

4. some events are double and even triple points events, which can kil you for the same reason as above.

there are tons of other reasons. no doubt, the shows are awesome and are one of a kind. and if you like that type of competition, thne you will love it, but i feel you can get slammed for alot of different things not even related to car audio. just my $.02 good luck!

hey bro... damn i thought i wrote alot... hehehe...

I was talkin with the guy thats doing my system today... I was seriously off with my info... He has done cars for Zapco, JL and many others.. He is well known amongst the circuit.... I leave it in his hands....

I also found out that the registration is now only $20.00 and the rule book has gone down to only $17.00... maybe $40.00 with IASCA CD... Either way... Its happening... and actually the rules were changed according to the installer to every 4" on the wires... thats alotta wire ties...lol

But thanks for the info, etc... much appreciated for the heads up!!!

good luck!! every four inches! damn!

wanna hear another goofy rule for points!! not sure if this is still around, but i heard if all the screws in your setup are turn the exact same way you get install points! oh well

also, let me know your 2002 show schedule on the east cost, maybe we could meet up. probably wont make anything in florida until may, but there are kick ass shows in carlisle pa. best anywhere north of atlanta imo.

Casper... you'd think that was my nickname since I'm nowhere to be found!! :P

My car is good... put a couple of things on the Christmas list (intake, interior trim, etc.) plus I'm working on getting the stereo upgraded (nothing fancy, probably just adding 2 10"s). I'll be around this spring (hopefully) so I can make an appearance or two at some local meets!!
