First off. i guess i was the only one to test a crown when everyone elso said it wouldnt work. even jbl guys told me it wouldnt work. so i guess i should just give my title to those who didnt take the time a test equipment that has been out for two seasons. i knew that amp worked last year. thats why i got a suv. for those that are crying about its a beginner class. dbdrag is not a beg. sport. its like racing local and then go i think im going to try and race in that nhra even next week. and then some prostock car beats you by 10 sec. or more.

I had stock Kicker L7's in my car not a high prices sub. but since i had the amp im cheating or something. but did any one notice that Brad that got second place had a 9.0 that at retail is $2,500. and he also had 99 DD 10's At retail $2,400. thats real entry level. now the next think some one will say is you can get a 9.0 cheaper than $2,500. true. but one does not have to buy a crown for 6g. either.

those that say no one will buy a crown for 6g. look at how many 4KW's are around retail on those are also 6G some one had to get new ones they just dont come from the factory stamped used.

but i guess next year we will see who is really loud. when all these people test with a crown and cant get it to work or can break a 153 with it im already doing it but like i said Next year we will see.

To every one that supports me and not talkn trash. thanks for all the support. i respect every one in the sport. i dont complain i just built my system buy the rules that we all used all year. i just sat on my score. every one in db drag spends alot of time and money in this sport. i spent too much cash this year. from 9.0's to dd99's to L7's and a crown yeah i am broke No company gave me anything this year. but ill be back next year.

too everyone that works to get loud cant wait till next year. it has been great getting to know a loy of people in dbdrag. people i look towards compeating with in the lanes next year. Mike. M., dt brown, Terry brocks, brad figard, alex hope you come back. bill L. Justin D. Matt. R. those are all great group of people i got to meet in street a this year. they are all great guys anyone i left out sorry.

i just wanted to get this off my chest casue most of this just keeps coming up over and over again. not trying to make anyone mad.

good luck to all see ya next year.

I support you James

Long live the Suv's!!!

If anyone should have seen the crown upset in street A
it should have been me knowing there was room for it plus us being a JBL dealer

and most of all it drove me nutz all year thinking about why you used a suv and not a crx and now i know why [Smile]

i cant wait till next year should be great

keep the rules how they are

Great Job. I was very pleased to see something other than a CRX win a street class at finals.

To anyone complaining about street being a beginner class needs to re-read dB Drags motto.

THE WORLDS LOUDEST CAR STEREOS!!!

There is nothing beginner about dB Drag. I was warned about this coming into this sport and this was my fist year. I am broke, I got 4th at finals, and I had the greatest time ever. If you need a beginner class then Whitlee is awesome!! [Big Grin] [Wink]

Once again Great Job and Good Luck next year James.

yeah, I don't know where this comment comes from [Roll Eyes] You had absolutely nothing to do with anything in James car lol. He had that many ports because we tested and that was determined to be the loudest. If hed of wanted to do your score he would have copied you [Razz] [Big Grin] P.S. there are orginals and there are copiers. What kind of amp and subs will you be running next year [Razz]
