Ohh yea i also wanted to say that that truck of richard clacks was pretty impressive. I should know since i sat in it at 1999 world finals in louiseville. It didnt explode the truck or anything but it did crush the side panels like a peice of paper when he played 10 cycles. I do recall having my hat sucked off my head when i was standing behind the truck it was a great fealing not being able to hear the bass but being able to feel the individual waves as the went through your body, ill try and get sum videos i know we have them somewhere of me and DB don holding the doors during a burp, very cool , bring on monster class!

So don't be so ignorant with your comments towards newer people to this sport. Such as:
"is this like a big news this HL DragQueen amp? it's like what?? 4-5 years old now? "
If you want to help, leave the sarcasm out of your answers. Thanks.

Getting back to the question, some of the amps posted by tinted are prohibited. Some are not (Visonik 4000, US Amps, etc).
The ones that are prohibited have basically two amplifiers in one case.
That would include the Zapco 4KW, etc.

They aren't really prohibited but are in a way for some situations in street because they are "circumventing the amplifier limit" a prime example is the Zapco 4kw and the SPL Dynamics SPL4000D which is two strapped amps in one case. These basically now count as two amps(which they are) in the new DB Drag rules... [img]smile.gif[/img]

ok there buddy, if u think it's rude of me to say something like to 'new people' then i honestly dont know......no one else seem to get offended in any way. i was simply telling every how old the amp is.

Exactly. This may push the manufacturer's into not only making monster amps but also much more efficient designs also. Should be an interesting season anyhow.

Yes SPL Dynamics are VERY efficient amps. Thank you tinted.
Now let's see some more company's make progress in this department also.

well the new american bass amp is pretty much the spl dynamics cut in half so it's probably just as efficient. but yah, hopefully amp manufacturers will shift the momentum towards efficiency rather than bolting amp together.

Which World Finals are you refering to ? The 99 IASCA Finals were in Greenville South Carolina which is where it debuted. The truck only ever went to one show that I know of after having the front end split open in a accident with a Semi on the way down from Autosound 2000 2 hours north in North Carolina. Wayne Harris would not allow him to compete at the DB Drag finals that year cause his amps ran at 18 volts. Did he show it off at DB Drags ?
