^ I've met this gentleman. This effect is SO easy to do...I jsut didn't realize it until he and I talked...


^Major speaker change from last year. Unfortunately Blair didn't do as well this year at finals. His car was a killer in March.

Well...interesting results from world finals!

I'm showing you guys my class. I'm going to preempt this with the fact that the night before my processor blew up and it made my p-01 sound terrible. With all that noise the Maximum deductions are five points. That plus my tuning on the car wasn't complete, so in all honestly (and I'm not trying to be conceited or have a big ego) I think this little Yaris could have won world championships in the class.

John Fisher (USA) 227
Klifton Keplinger (USA) 225
Jason Glass (USA) 221 Tiebreaker (Tonality score)
Jim Bishop (USA) 221 Tiebreaker (Tonality score)
John Davis (USA) 220
Louis Chouinard (Canada) 217
Blair Williams (Canada) 214
Robert McIntosh (USA) 188
Shawn Beaman (USA) 187

This one is the one that really calls my attention since it's different from the others,

I know this guy it's been out there for a while, do you have more info about his install?






How many of those cars have rails on the seat? I know the HAT G has.

What I like about the G is how clever Scott B. was to set up one amp for each speaker!




I love those woofers! 4 i6SWs AWESOME!

That top car is Mark Eldridge's NASCAR vehicle. He is always a top contender... And has been for years.

What exactly are you asking about the seat rails?

How many of those cars actually have rails to move the sweet spot even further back?

Got it... Quite a few actually. I believe you can start doing that in pro-am up to up higher classes.

For the record I do not and will not do that. If I cannot make it sound perfect in the stock position all the way back or in my drivers position it's just not right to me.

Just a side note, I've been talking with Garm about some modifications to the Yaris during my deployment to Afghanistan here in early 2014. I'll be picking up the Legatia SE LE series speakers, Upgrading the train horn to a Nathan K-3LA a low profile manifold, and installing an air runner suspension on this little car.



For me the Yaris will never be a fast car or one I would want to make fast. Going the other way, being able to slam this little car to the ground appeals to me highly.

I've got to keep up with you D...somehow! :)

This video is to show you how fast is my Yaris... LOL

NO, the idea is to show how much engine noise gets into the cabin (or how much engine noise is blocked into the cabin) in hard acceleration:

Thanks, I set up the music low enough to hear it as a reference against engine noise.

Get prepared and stay safe brother.

Oh...I'm probably going to step off of Team Hybrids. I've got SO many other things to concentrate on aside from towing the team line. Besides, if I can be the fourth best sounding car in the world WITH a blown processor and a nearly dead head unit and a tune that wasn't correct...I've got my stuff right. I'm still trying to decide if I want to sell off my heavy sound equipment...

The things I need to concentrate on are partly this:

One of those things is to get my wife finished with her nursing degree program just south of you.

Another thing for me to work on is my probable deployment to Afghanistan at the end of next year.

...the last one is prepping for this:
