Terry I have a question do you plan on running this car in usaci more, and or bringing it to finals at all?

I have waited for a big hitter from Drag in the street scene to cross over for a while, and glad to see it.

correct me if I'm wrong but from what I've read It takes 200 points to qualify for USAC world finals? if so I should have 30 points as of today, but that was the only show in my area,none of the others aren't even close, There's a 2x USAC event down Morristown Tennessee,Saturday Nov 12th but thats the closest event at 8hrs one way, ouch..

I don't know if that curve is all its said to be. I don't think that Mississippi was allowed to be a state that had a point curve due to the amount of events here and close by, but i know a guy last year that attended a total of 1 event, placed 2nd in trunk 0-1000, and received an invite to world finals.. so who knows really..

Im pretty sure MS had a curve last yr, even the almighty texas had a curve, people with only 60 points from tx got invites.

Great score Terry!

I do think a 160+ will happen in 1001+ by or before finals but not in 0-1000 anytime soon.

ya can get 13k in 0-1000 ... shouldnt be to long . now that there is a class for trunks.... people are starting to build for it .... before ya had to run stock and a 160 161 aint good enough so why try ...its way louder then i thought for only the first few years ...its going to get crazy loud soon i think

You mean now that someone has shown them how to do it , people will build for it.

Just like last year. After 2010.. how many fwd 2- 15 slot boxes and new guys we're there..

true true

But that's ok. Its good to see a class grow. I TRIED to help a few last year. And will this year too.

True that ! I know a black civic was doing 155.1 @49 hz in stock 601-1800 out of the trunk with a port center 2 15's box back in 08 don't you recall asking me about if i was that guy doing 55's out of the trunk and what setup was working best for me ?

Class would grow if usaci could figure out how to get real power ratings. 13k in 0-1000 is a joke!!! By the rules you should have no more than 8k at .5 right? That's 1000@4 ohms lol we all know that's no true either. At some point there has to be a place for our customers to play. Just my 2cent witch is not worth much.

the guys getting 13k in 0-1000 are way under .5 ohm

A d 13k is filthy as fuk .and not easy to get. Most average 9k in 0-1k

Yeah chris I do.but I was actually talking about ishs civic. And no one else was using or used it at finals that year..and no one has caught the number mine was doing with that design. I would of won finals with that box again this year.

You sure would have!
My sh it was a big disappoint I did manage a 157 in testing but we all saw the big fail at finals

I'm going to experiment and do some more testing on the driver's side and other areas to try and peg the 160 of which is only .3 db away, or I might just play with different subs and see If it can gain , for finals I've been contemplating my other two M4a's and four DD9512's to see if the civic can get 158+ at the dash and 161+ in kick , so much weight in trunk makes the car sweigh side to side a little, that sucks when driving down the interstates,lol

good luck man cant wait ta see it .....

Terry could use some Quadwood drop that weight by half

I'm a customer, and a loyal one.

4 ohm ratings have nothing to do with dynamic power man


the class isnt true 0-1000 its derived on 4 ohm at 14.4v and .1% thd

now 10% thd, and .12 ohms has nothing to do with the ratings at all.




last but not least get with the times or get rolled over man pretty simple

Lmao don't worry I can keep up. How many people are in your class on avg? I'm just saying that if the made it like 0-4000 and 4000- up. You could double the guys in classes with max ratings

nope man classes aint changing we went that route before and it dropped attendance off

it is what it is and it is either for you or it is not lol

as far as you hanging well thats yet to be seen

Well see you at padre!!! I have never placed below 3rd at an event and dint plan to start now. Also don't personally care if classes change it was just something to chat about lol

What class

I have gotten use to the rating system . Lol I am in the lowest mod class in usaci but in the unlimited class in other orgs lol is what it is I will be Playing against a pair of sd 16 k' s after thanksgiving

Sb 4 and mod? On power class for now. It's just about hanging with guys with like intrest for me. Good luck to all with your new builds.

ishes civic is 2 15s forward and ports threw the speaker holes

That setup was when he was put in mod. They rebuilt to a legal setup in 09 Like the port center box I had in 08

well im not a competitor anymore man im just a verification judge

they fixed that it was threw the deck.... not the speaker holes ... now its threw the speaker holes i helped do it ,,, has 6x8 pvc threw the speaker hole in factory location witch is legal to do .... pvc stops at the deck lid not past it
