Cool

Hi Dave! the biggest problem with the crx is that most competitors at works had their amps laying on the floor just behind the seat. i feel it would be fair if they had a predetermined area in which all equipment must be installed.last years rules were full of grey areas,perhaps things will be more precise in intended meaning.L8r

hmmmm so the whole space for 4 passengers in street.... i take it to mean no folding the rear seats down to slide my box back..... = 3-4db loss for me... it sucks, but at the same time if it keeps a 150+db crx outta my class.....ill have to adjust.... thats if the new concept im workin on is even condusive to any kinda decent SPL numbers....

dont tell me u actually did that?? sliding the box back onto the seats has been illigale forever!!

and yes u can fold the seats. but the 'normal use' restriction must be applicable....apperantly u didnt follow that to begin with.

the only thing that was ever said to me was as long as my box didnt sit above the bottom of the windows at all

see now really what would the difference have been between me doing that, vs someone with a crx whos box is up against their front seats?

but like i said, i did that at a number of shows since i got the kia, and no one ever said i couldnt, if they had i wouldnt have, oh well done is done.

guess the new rules will be more clear and will prevent mixups like that, i understood the rules incorrectly i guess

Quite a bit actually, because you're back seats are no longer functional with a big box laying on top of them.

If that were the case, then I'd gladly take a minivan in Street and remove all the seats and point my subs directly forwards, no wall stylez, YO!

Street wasn't always ruled by CRX's.

I dont think so.. I think the reason why people are complaining is pretty much because everyone wants a class to win.. in all seriousness.. check out alot of the suggestions.. its to make it so thier car is more competitive in the class they want to be in.. </font>[/QUOTE]Ya it seems that way

But the fact is having no chance to win isn't fun cause everythings more enjoyable when you win, or are atleast able to compete.
