It wan't for any class for dbdrag,I live in Texas but it was moved back on a later rebuild of the box but this is the best pic I had of it. The later one was fiberglassed inside and out.

Thats a pretty crazy setup. Ive used those subs before and they sound awesome. That would be one hell of a bass race setup.The probes do play low tones so for bass race would be awesome. I have a 99 mercury cougar I run for bass race and it is pretty much same body style 3 old x-sites in a sealed box with an MA 4000D doing 130-139.9 class like nothing max spl 144.9 with music at 51Hz

Nice, but illegal for dB Drag.

PS, why two ported and three sealed? [Roll Eyes]

It was on the floor and I didn't compete dbdrag with this car. It was a street bass ride. It was a mono box with six 15" subs, one in the middle top was inverted. It was loud for a probe, now I have a van.

There used to be a couple of probes running dbdrag in 00 and 01 that were competitive but haven't heard of too many lately.

WOW!! That looks cool!! How loud did you get? It's got sub maxed out if only you had the power it would have been fun! I knew about yours before I built mine.

What is the loudest Probe on the planet????

149.4 was its loudest with a La sound "3000 watts" more like 1000, to each of 5 subs, when i went to 5 amps to 4 subs each the ohms changed and my score went down. i had two battery's the stock and the massive one in the back.
