Grandsport is pretty fun. Smallish track, mostly 3rd gear. They run small groups of similarly skilled drivers and its pretty laid back. Only passing on the straights when the slower car waves you by, etc. Not exactly door banging racing but a great chance to go full out.

Check out the Houston Lotus club. They seem to run there a few times a year; they're who put together the outing I went to.

The recall is for 2003-2006 TL for the air bag module IIRC. The announcement is being broadcast via radio.

Sorry as I don't know how to fix it but you do have options. My head unit crap out on again. First time CD player wont work. Now sometimes it powers on and sometime it doesn't and the CDC/CD wont change over if I press the button.


Check your wires if you pull out the head unit
Check your fuse
Check under your drive seat to see if anything isn't disrupting the radio i.e. wires touching, crimping, that sort of thing.


Options are:
-Send in your factory radio to get repaired - IIRC $200
-Buy a new head unit - Dealer - $1000+ or ebay has a seller who sold me a new head unit and its OEM (yes brand new) for $340 shipped
-Live with it


DVD Players Navigation MP3 CD Stereos Factory OEM Car Audio


^ Also this is the same seller on ebay.

What a show!!!! If you missed out on last night's car show, you just missed out on possibly the biggest car meet of the century! The whole AMC parking lot was full and the home theater store's parking lot next door also. I had about 7 Acuras parked next to me and the whole scene out there was just crazy! There was a scion with a mad system out there and i requested he play "Act a fool" to set the scene...lol. Movie was good and heart felt. They did a really good job with Paul. (R.I.P.) Too bad this is the end of that series... "Legends never die"
