I hope everyone was able to learn something to help them improve their own listening experience; not just scores.
To those whose cars I listened to, I hope I was able to provide you some feedback to move forward. Admittedly, I don't have golden ears but I try my best to help when I can.
I plan to be at the April Fool's Fest but not 100%.
All you guys who attended this should consider coming to Steve Cook's event at his shop in Florence, AL on May 6. I'll be there with bells on barring anything unforeseen.
It's only about an hour from my house, if that.
Also, I've been kicking around the idea of throwing together an impromptu meet at my house sometime in April. Nothing major. Just offering the place up for everyone to come and hang out for the day. Would anyone be interested in coming out? If enough folks are interested, I'll talk to the Mrs about it.
I plan to be at April Fool's Fest. This will be my first show to enter assuming I get everything the way I want it.
The show on May 6th, is that the "Alabama Sound Off Trail-Quad Cities Jam" on the MECA schedule?
I wouldn't mind coming out to your house for a little get together if its not too far away.
Re: MECA Freezefest 2-26-12 Lebanon TN roll call and questions
April Fools Fest is gonna be my next one I think. I really want to hit one of Steve's shows. Ive been meaning to for the last 2 years but its a 4 hour haul for me and usually on Sunday so I always chicken out. Maybe this year, then the Vinny. Ive missed that one the last 2 years as well cause its always on my kid's birthday. Well this year Im going! My birthday is 4 days after his so Ive paid my dues and can call one for myself.

Re: MECA Freezefest 2-26-12 Lebanon TN roll call and questions
Hah. You're on! And I was using a $60 bargain bin sub on a ghetto baffle It'll be even better next time. I thought they said the margin was narrow, but I didn't know it was THAT narrow. Wow! Would be interesting to compare score sheets...
You gonna be at spring break? I don't think I had a chance to talk to you on Sunday.
Re: MECA Freezefest 2-26-12 Lebanon TN roll call and questions
WOW!!! Mod was close, I had no idea it was that close.
Aaron--leave $40 in the center console or under the seat for each judge and next time you'll win by at least 3/10s of a point or maybe even a full half

Oops! Truck is coming apart. New install in progress. Not much to listen to as it was. Maybe a tad better when I'm done with the new build.

Same here. I came for the criticism, not the numbers. One was very good with suggestions. I think I got what I need to begin to tighten things up a bit. Probably should've invited some more people on here to listen and critique. Live and learn.

OH snap! I got 3rd in Modified!! Woo hoo! That's weird that they never called my name though??? The wife said, " maybe they'll mail your trophy." LOL! It was so close too, wow!
