i remember late 80's- early 90's flash dance was played for the spl runs..... what do think about bringing it back for SB?

already been brought up it wont happin

I didn't like that song when it was popular, lol.

wow , i think the more important question is , what do you think redhanded ??

i was competing when that song was required for spl lol

" you cowards need to man up or shutup bout these scores until everyone is essentially equal"

whats all the name calling about ???
who are you speaking to ?
adding a huge variety of music choices only makes it harder to get louder .music choice is another hurtle in competition . another curveball .
one and only one song choice like flash dance was boring .
car audio thank god has evolved since the 1980's .

i saw all the complaining about gainin or losing Db..... i here some competitors cry that this person is cheating and that person is cheatin..... lets get on one platform.... flashdance or not... but one platform........ and if car audio has evolved since the 80's ......how much in reference to spl..... that was my point and further more i wasn't name callin BUDDY!

I think its a great idea!

1 class w/ flashdance. The finals trophy can be something funny/stupid but yet worth receiving.

make it to where you can track up anywhere in the song you want for your 30 second average.

You must wear legwarmers when you compet!

If you're going to use Flashdance, it needs to be in a separate category. Street Beat is for people that want to use particular music of their choosing, adding to the fun of competition.

Personally, I like the idea of bring it back as a "retro" competition. See how you stack up against the original competitors.

that would be cool to see how we stack up to them back than. Does any one what kind of numbers they did with this song and what kind of power was used?

I was friends with Mike Arnold, 1991 & 1992 Champ in USAC and TOW.

He had a Chevy dually with the back wall cut out. 24 15" Kicker Comps, powered by 6 Orion HCCA 2100's. That's 1600w per amp at 1 ohm, so he had around 10,000 watts.

Best I saw him do was like 153 on Flashdance. He also had TV monitors and a VCR in it, and he could do over 140 with a scene from Top Gun.


I think that vehicle could still compete today, although I believe a 2008 competitor would use less subs and port them.

also on audio control right ? i didnt think tl was around back then

I think so. I know it was positioned on the dash and people were usually humbled when they did it for the first time.

Yes average was 140 then but SPL didn't really matter cause it was all SQ Classes in Usaci back then guys.

Ohhhhhhhh and Fakuta did a 160 flashdance on the dash in an S-10 it was CRAZY
