Tyler,

You cannot use Quads in Street or Street Max, regardless of how they would be wired.

You can use Quads in Super Street or Extreme provided no more than 4 electrical conductors are used to connect the speaker to the amps. Essentially, you can only have 2 positive and 2 negative wires going to each sub. This means that you would need to run your quad in a DVC configuration. (With the coils wired in parallel.)

Please refer future rules related questions to the dB Drag Racing forum on the Termpro website so that others can benefit from the Q&A.

Good luck this season. Wayne Harris
I met so many people this weekend (Visions - Surrey) Im havin troubles remembering all the faces.
Who ever had the RE MT quad, looks like Super Street is in the clear like I was hoping.
Anyhow, awesome first competition experience for me! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]

Still, it defeats the purpose of it being a quad. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

The debate was: no quads or "Extreme only"
