Yikes forget 67 try 63. At least no rain. Aron I'll bring that thing we discussed. Also anyone interested in RE Audio SEX15D2 15inch sub? It's brand new, decided it would take up too much room. I'll bring it with me in case there is any interest. $160.

Saitek and MadCatz (Saitek USA) said it couldn't be done. Then I sent them pics and videos of my install.

Yeah, its in there and the dismantled throttle is under the driver's seat.

For my next trick (another no it can't be done), I'm gonna gut my X-52 and swap in the internals of the X-52 Pro. The Pro has an SDK for its throttle LCD I can access from RideRunner.

Well, in my typical ADD fashion, 2 days ago I thought I might see if there were any meets in my area in the near future. Fate smiling her sunny face down upon me, I found the monthly meet and met some great people.
As I sit here trying to coagulate my thoughts into something coherent regarding this event, I am filled with conflicting emotions. On the one hand, I am very pleased to have met some fellow Gear-Geeks, but at the same time, I am trying out one of these "crashless" energy vials. Ummmm..... brb.

If you like sweet, aftertaste-loaded cough syrup with a punch, then by all means try the Monster Lobo Hitmax. Me, I'm hoping a healthy dose of sand mixed with bentonite clay will wash this residue forever from my memory. Ummm...... brb.

Anyway, the meet was a great time, and I hope everyone had as much fun as I did. Gizmo, my ears are still ringing and I keep turning around for a train that's not there. I will retaliate with countless inquiries on my RR install. Boom, great install you have going there, can't wait to see the finished project. If you ever want to go the multi-channel D/A route, let me know. I have reams of unfounded wisdom to bestow upon you. Hopefull you won't end up as confused as me in this digital age. Durwood, I hope you start frequently these forums a little more often in the future.

As for the rest of you gentlemen, let me apologize in advance for what I warned you of earlier. My short-term memory retention most closely resembles your standard DRAM. Once I shut off, upon reboot I am left with only a few stray electrons to remind me that anything happened at all. Please don't take offense, and DO PM me with your names and profiles so we can keep contact and help each other out . It was great to meet you all, and I hope we can keep doing this.
