This is really a pleasure to do - and not because of the car or product, but because of the people. Everyone, I would like to introduce the SPL world to another great Sound Quality Team - John Pitts and Wil Adc(oc)k LOL - sorry Will, but this darn program will not permit me to spell you name as it should be - see - Ad****.
I met John and Will a few years ago and I consider them friends. They have one of the most beautiful sq cars (Reaper 1) on the circuit today. I do not know how many trophies these guys have taken home - but it's many. They are true competitors and I really think they need to think about coming over to the "dark side" to play for awhile.
Everyone say hello to John and Wil. (I talked to Wil today and he said no problem, they would be happy to be our guest. LOL, I think John is the one on internet so we have to break the news to Big John in Houston.

John and Wil welcome to the forum. "The Reaper" is so beautiful...gold plated amps and eq...an amazing front stage with all Focal drivers, headunit moulded into the dash...and showing everyone you dont need a complex design to kick ass and take trophies. If you gentlemen get a chance I would love to hear how you tuned the subs in the dash. The reason I ask is cause I have Focal Utopia 5ws subs in my kickpanels that are ported according to Focal's recommendation but the subs in the 'Reaper' were in a sealed enclosure. I have tried different sealed enclosures but they never were able to perform how I wanted them to. If you gentlemen can help out it would be appreciated. And welcome again.

Welcome guys! This is incredible, you guys have built two of the best vehicles of all time, and you're here on the forum! I'll never forget reading in CSR that you toppled Eldridge at the IASCA finals, what a feat! Great to have some diehard SQ fanatics on here! I have the Reaper 1 and 2 in mags and they both look awesome. I am a big fan of your simple strategy, with not a lot of gizmos and what not. Cool, nice to have you guys aboard.

I talked to Wil when they were in Arizona for the WWWShootout. I have a feeling that they may not be able to visit on line. We will see. Sigh ! You know those SQ guys! The QUIET ones! LOL
Regardless - Friends, Great competitors, and awesome vehicles.
