Not one single problem. I did however buy another 4 channel amp (old school soundstream). The phoenix gold I have now was always messed up, and I'm tired of it.

I need to replace one of those Focal Utopias as well, someone is selling some rainbow soundlines in the black market. Thinking about picking those up, but don't know for sure.

Let me get this straight. You're in Austin this weekend and you didn't want to go for a drive with me and Grayson (or at least mentioned it)?

my goof...my goof

I thought I would be too busy looking for a house. I want to find one and get papers going before I leave. I'll be back though, cause I have to be back to do the signing at closing. Will be here another weekend.

But the drive would be awesome. I will for sure coordinate with you guys when I come down later this month.

It's all good, I wouldn;t have been able to do anything this past weekend anyways-too busy moving out of my condo.

Give us a holler when you make it out again and we can take the Viper out for a cruise

I am good for anytime as soon as the pads arrive.

Thanks for the help. I like the sound of

"Trance's Brake Shop"

If we organize lots of track days we could be great repeat business for you. j/k

i think, i know that Bobby races in GT class. If you go over there theres a 90% chance he'll be there, everytime I have gone he is. Also, if you do go out there, i'd meet you out there for some grub, could prolly swing some more people!!

That sounds like an excellent plan. You can drive to Dallas-spend the night and party with them crazy fools. The next day, all you crazy fools can caravan down to the new crib-and spend the night ans party some more. Then, well, party some more

Sound like a plan?
