Review of Yesterday's Mod

[secret squirrel]

I had fired up the "Wayback Machine" today. Today was the first time I noticed this.

Ummm....maybe it’s me but what mod? Oh I know, he didn’t insult anybody!!!

All I know is that when Secret Squirrel starts posting….hang on for the ride of your life folks.

Then there was the old "Turbo Tune" from EEI (Express Electronics). Fastest 50 bucks they probably every made.

Fine tune is such a A. H.

Don't awaken that curse!

Something about the name "Express Electronics" makes me nervous.

Some of the marketing always fascinated me. Mike had a cool website at the time and and an entire online forum to spread marketing with peer pressure and be one of the crowd techniques. I still remember him trying to sell me a RCI 2950 for 690.00. No one wanted to hear that a properly tuned stock Cobra 29 swinging to 18 watts on frequency will talk over the big radio sound.

Oh No!

- "And don't forget - there is a difference between PDC watts and Bird Watts..."​

Hoo boy...

Everything was fair game...

I just wanted to point out - he could hook up the radio to a scope and show things, but his favorite tool was a Dremel.

That's scary...

You know, I was once lost man and didn't live the best life. I believe in second chances because I was given the Grace to have one myself.

Aside from what radioactive once was and the impression it left on many, Mr Mike got a second chance and went on to do other things. Seems to be doing pretty good these days, respected in his community, and in a whole new profession too.

It's good to know that and must give kudos to the man.

So back to topic, it's almost unbelievable that Mark doesn't just rag on Mike even though he doesn't completely build him up either.

Maybe because nobody can ever meet the stature of the magic pixie dust......

How are feeling 828? Any test results?

Not as rough as yesterday and now just waiting for the call. Thanks for asking. I'll keep you fellas updated though

I have nothing to add to this except #savemofo

His poor dog. Lazy ass drives in his jeep instead of walking the dog like most people.

Express Electronics Turbo Tune
that's old stuff right there.
They gave the long hard unlubed shaft to a bunch of people when they closed the doors, and did it very deliberately.
not nice at all
