this is kinda what i think too, thats what keeps me from competeing alot now, at 30+ dollars per for dbdrag and another 30+ for bassrace thats 60+ per show, and if you win you get a 15-20 dollar trophy when you have thousands put into your system and then a good junk of change just to compete...id like to get reworded for all the time money and work put into the system....thats just me tho. dont get me wrong i love goin to the shows its a blast to kick it with everyone and demo all day long check out other ppls builds but as far as the competeing goes i agree alot with pimpin on this one
