...and already back from the Euro Finals...
Season 2005 is now over and I got my first points for 2006 in Austria.
I found a minute for a few thank yous for the three weeks in the states this year:
Thank you Sam Horn for let me give you a hard time doing the Bass Race with the VW thing. That Thing gave me a hard time also and I am sorry that it hadnt the result we wanted. But it was fun anyways ! And I am so proud that I was invited for the first Bass Race World Finals ever ! I wish Bass Race will grow a lot next year !
Thank you American Bass Bob for borrowing me the half of your both for the Bass Race Project. Next year I just will take your complete Demo Car, hehehe ! Thats easier for all of us...
Thanks Sony Xplod for helping out with the points people awards.
Thanks Sony Germany and Benelux for the Season 2005 what guides us to a points level of about 825. I think that record will last a long time, and if not, it will give the guy and company who breaks it a hard time
During the trip I meet following people and want to thank them for this and that :
Thanks Superiror Sounds in Erie for getting me the FM modulator, so I was able to hear my new Metal MP3 Songs what Casey got me !
Thanks to Bruce Dressel (and his mom) who let me stay in his house even when nobody was at home. When your in Germany Ill take the same care of you, believe me ! And please look over the hot party I had with the girls Bruce
Thanks Dave Downey for having me in the house, the nice breakfast and introducing me to the mongolian BBQ ! I am still mad about the last point I didnt make at the pool billard...
Thanks Joe from Downtown Sounds for having me there. Good luck for your business and I hope the columns in your garage will be stronger than they look like
Thanks Chris Norris for having me using his internet connection for so long. It is a really nice shop you have there and at leat I saw that you really work there Tell your mom greetings. I spoke for a while with her and have now a totally different picture of you, hahaha ! Oh, and thanks for the breakfast. I hope you were able to "fix" the issue in the club Fine that you showed me the old SPL machine with the Strokers and Orions in it !!!
Big big thanks for the Alfaro family who invitet me to stay, treated me like a family member and finally took me to that huge buffet ! It was a very emotional moment seeing Davids grave and I will never ever forget him ! I really hope that Eddie comes one day over the pond so that I can give back at least a little hospitality ! And I wish that Eddies SPL Projekt will have big big success next year, bc he dropped it for bringing the CRX...
Thanks Jeff Sweere from Sweet Sounds for giving me one of the 4KW cases ! A true piece of history ! I will fill it with good ol 9.0s. Your shop is also a nice one !
Thanks to Timothy Prins (groundpounder2k) and Family for spending the evening with me in Sioux Falls and driving around a little bit. Also thanks for the burger ! You know, once your here, Ill take care of you ! Good luck with all your future projects. I enjoyed watching the old pics from your doings. I think you can open a shop and provide your services. You have fun and work with fiber and bondo like its normal. Big thumbs up !
Thanks to Team Maxxsonics John for at least inviting me to the office. To bad that you had to be out of the country. Next time we shedule better.
I already reassembled the trophy (its 100" and I had a hard time at the checks at the airport bc of the weight and everything) and it is higher than my room...
My plans for next year are not existing yet. No Idea if I continue dB Drag or other formats. I think at least I do competitions like a "hobby", what means going to some and have serious fun Equipment and cars are here more than needed. Time to become one of the loudest again??? Hm, who knows, I am not soo interested in that...
Maybe sponsors pop up or do at least offer me something what is worth the work. I try to visit the finals next year again. With, or without car(s).
Finally, congrats again to all winners and participants !!! (Terry I am proud of you, the same is for Eddie Alfaro)
And of course it was a pleasure to meet you all again. Because of all that nice people I know, I didnt miss my cars at the finals. Thats true. Maybe that is my future now (c:
I missed visiting a lot of people during my trip. Pornstar, Tom from Ohio Gen. , Jason Muns and so on. Didnt know before that they are live there. Maybe next year?
Üüüühh!!! Michael
PS.: Another Sorry for not making a new Movie. I was not in the mood nor I had time because of all the Bass Race Stress...
PS2.: If I forgot somebody, please let me know, I will edit the posting then.
PS3.: I hope, everybody what I will take care of, if coming to Germany, will not come at one date! Or I will have a huge problem

I'm sorry I missed you in Chicago. I thought maybe you might come by Monday or Tuesday.
I'll be in Oberhiem to visit our MB Quart factory before too long so I'll let you know when I'm there. Maybe we can meet somewhere and have a beer or two, three, four...
