Berto Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Maybe some sort of promoting the sport. Flyers at local car shops even big places like Best Buy. This may sound lame but even some high school promoting like in the auto shop classes. There are many bass heads out there and lots of youngsters. That have no idea of DB Drag, MECA, USAC. We (Flex Issues) didn't just get lucky to have so many competitors. Just saying. i mean no offense here berto but some teams look for members and do mass recruiting, some teams only take on a few select people. the number of members doesnt gauge how good the team is. we had a string of new competitors that wouldnt travel, bragged about getting 1st when no one else was in their class, thought they were the shit, cried if they didnt win, etc., etc. i have been happy with most of you newer guys so far. i have yet to meet most of you in person but you are at most of the shows and i dont see too much drama. its a nice change. about putting up fliers; we should have one flier that we can download and print. more people might post fliers if they all dont have to make one themselves. Kyle cleared it up, but I meant competitors showing up. We did massive amounts of promoting. Flyers everywhere, me taking over best buys computers and putting flyers, Eric going all over so cal, Jr taking over craigslist and everyone passing flyers everywhere they went and with their facebooks. I thought my wording would have been ok since I quotes someone talking about promoting shows. And just in case that bragging about 1st comment was about me, I'm kind of disappointed in the way in placing. At our show I felt horrible cuz they gave me the 1st place trophy even if someone beat me (was my 1st show so thought that since the other guy wasn't MECA member he doesn't get awards), and after it got cleared up and I gave him the 1st place trophy it felt a whole lot better.

skittlesRgood Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 no no, i wasnt talking about you at all. mostly past years in dbdrag. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

Team Bassick - Kimo Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Location is most important.I dont do any promoting and our shows are huge.. your shop has a good friendship with many compeitors here in central cali, which is great. I think the better the shops relationship to the community, the better the turnout. Your shop is ingrained in the comp scene, which very few shops now a days can say. I think it would be prudent for other shops to follow your lead as far as how they involve themselves. However, this is only applicable to select shops, as many shops have no true concern or desire to compete or be involved in it..I have tried to get the shop here in Hanford involved many times yet to no avail..And its not like this is the type of shop that is a Sony and Hifonics dealer...they are an Earthquake, DC and Memphis dealer, so they have the resources to build loud vehicles...they just choose not to The shop in Hanford wouldn't be American Audio or something in downtown Hanford?

atsaubrey Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 I would love to have big trophies at the shows. If the turn out became 100+ cars then it would be feasible. Currently the awards I give out cost right around $500,+ pay MECA, pay the judges, pay the expenses..........so let's see more cars out there fellas!

It looks like it's headed that way, MECA is catching on and growing fast. I went to the DbDrag event at AI and Ray said that the MECA event that was held the day before was much bigger than the DbDrag event.
