Oh and jared....watch the "boonies" comments... [Smile]

nothing would make me more happy than to see full brackets in extreme 1, unfortunately it was the smallest turnout at finals.

nothing but love from the west coast to SBA, paul coming back??? dumb question, like it would be announced this early on this public forum.

Saaristo, i was not pointing the finger at you for saying you didn't want to rebuild. many people above extreme 1 can't do the number you are doing, i hope i never questioned your building ability or motivation.

How about this you said before?


Fact of the matter is neither of you want to rebuild and that is the only reason. i guess we just see the euro selfishness really shine in this case. if there is no one competing in the class(you know those creditable competitors, which we have already established that there MAYBE 7 at the most). too bad you guys can't see it. it is ok, i don't expect many people to see things for what they are. introspection obviously is a difficult task for some people.

first off i think the street classes should stay street a, b , and c. i mean those classes have the most people competing.

restricting crx/s to strut would be a bad idea. this would help me out but be very unfair to others. my suv has more room that a crx.

i would like to see one amp in a, 2 in b and 4 in c.

podiums in street would be nice.

limiting street to 45, 50, or 60 hurts just wouldnt be fair. it would help me out a lot but its not fair.

i would love a clear battery rule. or atleast have the current rule printed.

i agree with limiting the time zones to less 3x shows and even doubles

i would love to see the 50% point rule for the ride that is being brought to finals raised. but that would make it very hard on some ext and ss cars that cause alot to travle.

thanks and good luck everyone next year

x1000 on the amp idea for street, i think it should be that way for smax also....you limit this to stop a single crown from dominating, but people go out and buy 2 5000 watt amps instead of one 6000....just doesn't make sense

I just think it would be nice for all the street classes to have the same number of amps...and just changing the batteries (2 in street C, 1 in A and B) .
2 amps would be good (it would not take back the 1 amp problems we had in last season)...

So it would just be down to which size of subs you want to use [Smile] ...

I agree with the amp rules as well, but then again, see sig. If not podiums in street, at least allow longer wires and take the head unit out of the dash. Battery's in street need clarified, what exactly can and cannot you do in mounting location and size. No reason to limit street frequency other than for the European guys. American's all play under 62Hz. 45, 50 Hz is just silly, and really hard on equipment, which makes these "entry level" classes even more expensive than they already are. I do think it would be good to have the "qualifying" points of the vehicle going to finals raised for Street, Street Max, and SS vehicles, maybe like 80% for street, 70% for street max, and 60% for superstreet. Get more big guys out at shows.

As it stands now, if you place well at finals (16-32 points), go to one 3X (24) for a certified and win (most top guys are only one's in a class at 3X) and then hold 1 or 2 shows (8-16) at your shop (cheaper than trailering the extreme vehicle to a show), you have your 50 points in your vehicle.

i think street classes should have power limits. like 1000 for street a, 2000 for street b, and 3000 for street c. the street classes are supposed to be an entry point, seams to be who ever spends the most wins right now...

And how are you going to polica power limits?

It will just bring out a whole new line of "cheater" amps.

I think the Street and Street Max amp limits should be halved but I cant see it happening.

The most expensive equipment doesnt always win. I think street a is up to 157.XX with 2 Kicker L7 10s. Those arent expensive at all.

I have to agree... Being a Ext 1 competitor this year and having my team mates in Ext 2 and Street classes I would not like to have to compete against my team member in ext 2. I say keep it the way it is.

how about using the cea2006 ratings...
i think that was the whole reason for them.
it would make for a very level playing field.
a single amplifier in street would attract newbies. [Smile]

I'm thinking round....
