Extreme Groundpounder Build Up. Got Steel?(new Pics/doors Started 10-23-2k8)

Whats the advantage of steel cage? When its very strong then you lose less dBs?

[roscoe1129]

Great updates man!! Didnt know you were gonna take the roof all the way forward but that will be the strongest!!!

[David]

originally I wasnt gonna do the roof like this, but this way it will be the strongest, and thats all that matters at this point.

welding upside down is no joke let me tell yea, and I still have about 10 pieces or so to weld in, then I can start the sides which will be the hardest todo.

if i lived closer i wouldnt mind weekend grinding for ya, that stuff doesnt bother me, i actually prefer it over my desk job lol. looking good so far.

[David]

LOL hell yeah I prefer it over my normal job too, right now its raining cats and dogs out there and I have no protection from the rain, not enough room in the garage to get the car in.

DatBenz, this is an extreme car, they are built to be as strong as possible, for a few reasons.

1) the stronger the car the louder it gets with less power ( thats the theory anyhow)

2) to help hold in all the pressure that builds up while playing Music or burping it= louder scores

Extreme Cars are what made this sport ( db drag, bassrace, meca,usaci, iasca) so popular back in the day, Tim Maynards Extreme Rockford fosgate Blazer blew me away back in the day, and I have wanted to build something like that ever since, and Now I am.
