what are you running, what classes are you going to run in, etc...

make sure you have all music/tones organized, get there early for the possiblity of playing on the meter before everyone shows up(depends on the judge, some will some wont), also, bassrace is the shit, that shits a rush everytime for me

Legal TL scores145.6 on the dash sealed up in the low 40hz area with the port out145.5 on the dash sealed up @30hz with the port inless then 1k clamped on a 3.5k!

Why would you EVER WANT flex?
huh?...flex is what can make the lows lower and more air being pushed correct?

Im running 2 sa-8's on a bd1000.1 so ill be in street stock. I talked to the judge so I will have time before the comp to find my peak. Im doing db drag for my first one so I can get the hang of things for bass race.

This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned
