I guess I am to blame.......

I guess I am the one to blame about all of this "sony" talk. I don't think it is as bad as you all make it out to be. All of those people who talk about the "Sony Civic" are only trying to give me some praise. Just like everyone else is doing for the 8 track car. Something you don't see all the time. I think it is kind of neat that the guy who keeps closing all of the sony and 8 track threads will let people make fun of one another and brag about and praise other stereos. Oh yeah I see, it's not Sony. All you people out there who sit there and bash the sony system or the 8 track system, are the people who just sit at home and do nothing. You are never at the shows, so you have absolutely no right to even say anything. Come out to a show, have some fun and then you will see why people post about sony and the 8 track. Go ahead close the thread, kick me off the site, do whatever you want. I know my system isn't the most expensive, but it got me 4 trophies in the last 3 comps so I am damn proud of what I got. You don't like it....Dont post a message.!

****, I could care less if it was DD, or Jensen, Crossfire, or Pyramid.
It doesn't matter that it is Sony that is getting louder and louder, it's the fact that your car is getting louder and louder.
Keep up the good work Ollie. Not a lot of guys are holding a candle to your set up. All you gotta do now is do a touch of rework and start claiming IdBL and dB Drag events... then see how fast people stop talking smack.

Making a post once and a while is ok.. but a post every few days or hours about the same thing gets anoying.

I agree with both A rok and Sony Civic how come people come on here and trash talk others when so far as I can tell this forum is here to help each other out, If people don't post there success how are others supposed to know what works good. I have yet to see a forum closed for something mainstream like rockford or JBL. My thoughts are you can't trash talk something unless you have actually seen it and heard it!! If this thread gets shut down just because the word SONY is mentioned you might as well shut down the whole site! Sony Civic rules!! [img]graemlins/@bow.gif[/img]

Baring in mind this is soley my opinion,look at it from this point of veiw...you let a thread go about an air freshener but when someone does well,wants to share his(or a friends) happiness in doing well with a system that most in the industry would consider less than top quality,you close the thread "because we are tired of hearing about this....".Yeah,there for a little while I went overboard on the 8 track thing,but only beacuse its different.I have eased off as some have requested,but only in an effort to keep the peace around here.By the way,did you know that I have a lady in Belguim who has asked me for pics of my setup to be posted on her homepage?I hope one day the Sony Civic gets the same sort of honor and praise and more.I don't see what Ollie,Todd or myself have done wrong.
See,Ollie,LBKC and I are the shmoes that have to work our damn asses off to get somewhere.We don't have unlimited credit,or a big fancy shop,or all the tools and what not to do a world-class install.For most of you who don't know this,I myself am in bankruptcy right now.Most of the money I have in my system was supposed to be used to make my trustee payments,but I have chosen to "go hard or go home".I ahve had to bust my *** for the last couple monthes to try and get my system louder...dealing..trading...swapping..getting to bed at about 4 am then getting up for work for weeks on end...do rewiring jobs by trouble light in my driveway at 2 am...and I am sure I am not the only one that pushes like this as well.
I know for a fact(or so you tell me)that some of you can just walk into an electronics store and boom!NEW SUBS!!We can't do that.
And I also agree that some of the people on here are those that just sit at home and are not out there competing and promoting the sport.I'm sorry,although I do know one or two of them a face to face level and I do think them to be good people,I don't beleiev they have the right to "dictate"(for lack of a better term(not meant to be taking in the wrong light)what we are allowed to talk about.
Let us,the hardworking,assbusting,true die-hard db Drager's have our bragging rights...I ask only this of you not in a begging manor,but as a small favour to us,the "Joe Blow's" of the db drag world...
I say GOOD ON YA,OLLIE!!!LONG LIVE THE SONY CIVIC!!! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
Oh,BTW Ollie....check out my sig....hehe..
Thats my 2 cents.....

ya know
my dad can beat up your dad
my mom's cooking is better than your mom's
my bike's better than your bike
geeeez after all these years after elementary
junior high and high school people just dont get it the color of your bike wont help you win a race
its how fast you pedal that sucker.
i think it's great that all your hard work paid off and like i said you need i truck to haul
those big **** trophies around.
my opinion dont scutinize imagination because it
seems to work
you got one guy with a truckload of sony
you got another that plays 8-track
another thats seems to be loudest with christmas bass music
and another with handfull of kiker
and of course myself with only one sub who wanted
to compete with the big boys.
so my final thought is this
win win win

hey Chris B. not to get off topic or anything, i was wondering what you hit on the new termpro. most of the talk of lack of participation is focused at local guys. i have no idea how db drags are going out in ontario ,but i'm sure you would like there to be more of them.but thats merely my opinion...the season has been so sparse in western canada that i've had , and will go to competitions in the states.driving 18 hrs each way to these comps is BRUTAL!!but i still have fun at the comps( isn't that why we do it?)and finally good goin' Ollie, if i'd stayed in calgary ,i'd had to have kicked your a$$...j/k [img]tongue.gif[/img]
only two dbdrags left in alta. this month lets make these comps something to tell our grandchildren about [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Am i the only one whos noticed that the more rule changes that take place the more its costing to compete with the big boys, and the less intrest there is dbdraggin??
I know that what has happened with myself, im not interested in it much at all anymore. I prefer to have myself a loud street beater and drive around listening to music.
