    Hope everyone enjoyed the Autocross!

    Cause I hate to admit it, but here was my morning: Get up/shower/etc. to attend my second autocross. Get on the road at about 6:35am and am making good time. At least so I thought. Start seeing signs for the bypass around Peoria...... CRAP!!!! I'm headed to Pontiac!!!! No way I'll make it...

    I thought I had a blown speaker, but.....

    Nah, I didn't tug on any others since I'm not having any other issues at the moment (except for the clicking sound). And I really didn't feel like doing any more than I did. The ones I had to deal with were so close to the chassis that one slip with the wire trimmers and I'd end up replacing...

    I thought I had a blown speaker, but.....

    Yep, used shrinkdown hose over the new splices, as well as a little tape just to make sure. Figured out what one of the 'other' wires was - was the 'door ajar' notification. Never saw it light up before, but sure noticed it now (always worked fine on the passenger side).

    I thought I had a blown speaker, but.....

    An update after this morning's project! Unhooked the tubing and found four wires that had previously been repaired. They over-repaired them, and they all failed/are failing. Three were completely broken off, and the other will one day soon. I repaired the three broken ones, but skipped the...

    I thought I had a blown speaker, but.....

    Will do the search right now. I figured the 'click click' was wires making contact, but since it does this with power off, I know it isn't the speaker wires. Probably power going to the door lock or something of the sort.

    I thought I had a blown speaker, but.....

    It looks like it is something more involved. Background: When I purchased my '01 GTS, I 'thought' the left front speaker was blown. Didn't think too much of it, as I knew my first 'mod' would be to upgrade them. Today my new set of Polk DB651 arrived, so I began the project immediately. I...

    Looking for a few Yellow GTS's

    Thanks for the plug! ;) Two other options. There are lots of solid yellow RT/10's out there, and I'm sure the kids won't remember if it is coupe or not after they leave (plus it looks closer than that GTS-R). Or get yourself a can of spray paint and make them yourself! :rolaugh:

    Huge Viper Smile after cruise on Great River Road - Illinois/Iowa

    I like the idea of a cruise, followed by a parade into one of the local show-n-shines. ;) The local Mopar club has a cruise-in on a Tuesday once a month, but only about 10 cars there. Of course a showing at the River Valley Cruise-in at Northpark would put those Vette guys to shame (who...

    Huge Viper Smile after cruise on Great River Road - Illinois/Iowa

    Dubuque yes, VOI nope. Since my kids are so young, they couldn't attend anything and Nicole had no interest in a plant tour (nor the price since she won't be driving). Plus, my lift just got delivered and garage door is done, so now to get it assembled!

    New plates arrived!

    Well, as you know my name is "Scott" too! In Iowa, they put your county name on the plate, but I get that asked all the time: "How did you get your name on the plate?!" My last name is "Brady", and ironically the main street through Davenport is Brady Street. Guess this will be my new home...

    New plates arrived!

    Never owned personalized plates before, but since they're cheap in Iowa (only $25 to start and $5/year maintenance) I had to spring for them! Had a number of choices, but this is what I ended up with! My own personal ode to the sheer power (and responsibility) that comes with this monster!

    Any Quad City/Western IL guys driving down to Roanoke Sun 7/27?

    Really really want to, but don't think I can pull it off. Ran into Dr. Phelps and he mentioned he may be going also. You driving up to it? Or just attending?
