always have been lol

I wasn't comparing him to Quad, just saying they add more drama to the forums than anyone else I know. Jeff's a great guy, just a dick on the forums. We all love him though.

actually im the same way in person the reason i seem differant is because most of you guys will not get into what we talk about at shows if you did then it would be easy to see im no differant at all

homo^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Cool, Ill be there.......

Good call, lets get this out of the way.

All I can say is WOW....Thats really Freakn bad ass

This is awesome...thanks to everyone involved.

Im guessing doubletree will be host since its connected?

I have mixed feelings,

I like to drive and have a car with great mpg, and I'm looking at 11 hrs. I would love to see all of your guys systems because they are the same but different.

About the crying, besides one guy(I'll leave out names) most people are complaining about 20+ hr drives one way, we are talking about extra thousands of dollars for some of the people towing vehicles from the N East. I looked at the other thread and most USACI guys have less than 10 hr drives.

Dont get me wrong I plan to make the drive, and would like to participate in more shows if they were in the Indiana/Ohio area

no prob danny...

Too bad something couldn't be worked out to have joint Finals at two locations at the same time, like Drags did last season. That would settle some of the issues we have in the Northeast. Distance is the major issue, but the additional costs of gas, plus hotels is gonna be a killer for most of us in the Northeast and Canada. Having this location is great for USACi, but I seriously doubt you'll see a good dB Drags turnout, especially from anyone with a trailer or the street guys from Canada. I can't speak for them, but thats the feeling going around.

this is huge....think about it...LOTS MORE COMPANYS are goin to be willing to spend the money to get a booth once instead of twice, and that mean more competitor support. more spectators cause of the combined finals even with the people bitching...we need to be getting companies, manufacturers, ect "outside" of car audio into this finals to see the huge amount of people that come to these that will expose their company or product at a very low cost. this can be as big as we make it....end of story..no b!tching..lets take the positive route..

That should be one big bonus for manufacturers, they won't have to shell out huge money for two locations now, just huge money for one. It will definitely be a good thing in this regard.

When a manufacture looks at supporting an event like this, they look at several things.... first and foremost, what kind of local support do they get out of the local market..... meaning does that manufacture have good supporting retailers in that area or region.... if so then the next step is, will this event help draw people in and then will they run out and buy their products after the event from the local retailers.... and then of course many of the above mentioned facgtors come into play..... Tulsa is a huge car-show town... The Daryl Starbird show held each winter draws in 2,000 show cars with 60,ooo spectators,,,, if this is promoted corectly it should be a great event. but word of mouth will not do the trick,, got to spend money to make money, so I hope USACi and the supporting retailers will do their part.... ADVERTISE!!!

yes sir...agreed...we also need to get companies "outside" of the car audio world

Maybe I should bring some Oklahoma Joes bbq from kc to oklahoma....thats good Dung Pile.

Wow great to see thi hppen finially! I think this will be very very benificial for both orgs! a few people that cross over from one to the other will not be happy as I know systems are not the same org to org.

But this needs to happen to keep both orgs comfortable in these hard times!

Im sure we will see everyone there!

yup...we can't have advertising like last year...gotta get out there and spread the word BIG TIME! Man...I'd even hit PAS mag and stuff like that. Even forums...CarDomain...whatever.

I think he meant Military, Kumar. haaa

I SHOULD be there. Looking forward to hearing some loudness.
