Cool, are you going to be slugging it out with me in Street B Marcos?

Well... I say slugging it out.. I mean embarassing me ;) :)

Think i'll be in street somewhere.

Not sure which class yet though.

Might join you in street B!!

Mark

Street A for me then

what does battery physical size limits actually mean?

what does battery physical size limits actually mean?

Nobody knows yet!!

This is the third draft of the rules.

I`m in Street C.

Trying to hit 150dB again :cry:

I`m assuming the battery size is limited to the original one that can fit in the engine bay.

The rules are not finalised yet though.

More details as I get them.

Or you can also check for yourselves on the termpro forum

Damm James u r in the same group as me !

Good luck dude and to all you others :)

i would be in street C thats pretty kool

Lozzy, you'd be in Street C, as you run 2 X 15s chap

yea i relised that my eyes were playing tricks on me lol whats the record in this catagory?

Marvellous !

Thats the Smart in Street A then.

Thanks Marcus for keeping us uptodate. 150....should be easy for you !

Tall Paul :)

Here's to dBdrag and idBL and a stormin year !

Oh James M, last year the same rule applied....it basically means that your battery has to 'fit' into the space of the original.

Can I run a pair of DVC 10 inch subs in Street A or do they have to be SVC?

jamiebae, DVC subs are allowed in all classes.
Although, as MHB said, the rules aren't 100% finalised yet.

Tall Paul :)

yea i relised that my eyes were playing tricks on me lol whats the record in this catagory?

No record for this category, its never been run before.

Redcords only last for one year anyway, they are returned to zero at the start of every new year.

Ben

are right quality :D

how do you sign up?

I'm pretty sure you can just turn up at events...

Could you give us an idea of how much dBDrag events are gonna cost to enter Ben?

quality im gonna wait then, build the van ;)

I'm pretty sure you can just turn up at events...

Most dB Drag events will be turn up an pay, others will be book a week or two in advance, just depends on the type of show.

Cant personally comment on prices.

Im sure all details will be released as soon as they are confirmed.

Ben

Grr I want to be in Street, but no way I can see that happening in any form with a Mini's boot :( (yes I know I still have plans, just Street would be more interesting)

Im just gonna have to end up in Street Pro getting a battering...

M:B

what so no battery in the boot

I'm not up on the rules this season, but last season, I believe you could only run a battery in the boot in Street B class, or above, not Street A

Street Pro will work quite well for you M:B ;)

You can have your engine running and have your head-unit outside the car, both not allowed in normal Street.

Plus your at a slight advantage with regards to battrey power ;) Your battery is already in the boot, right near the amps :D With an extra battery in the boot all your power is were it is needed, as close to the amps as posible :D

And as you know the mini has a small cabin and a rather high RF aswell.

At the moment I cant think of any UK car that will be in SP, our mini will stay in NW, so you could come along to an event and find yourself doing rather well.

Ben

you to mate!

this only running a battery in the standard location sounds pain in the arse though

i have 4x15s what catergory do i go in?

4 x 15s will put you into SS 3-4.

This is one of the "bigger boys" classes. 3 or 4 subs in a wall normally. In previous years in the UK cars were hitting over 160s.

World class cars were hitting 165/167s

Ben

I said that... where'd my post go? :confused:

EDIT: Ignore me, twas in another window, and funnily enough, i'd not clicked "Post" :rolleyes:

LOL

Actually Street Pro might be beneficial to you as well.

Will get over your remote problem by allowing you to use the head-unit outside the car. Might be worth considering.

Ben

I may well do chap... I'm not too fussed about being in a higher class, i'm not going to win anything either way! :)

Well isnt that something :D

How is your car in a different class to my planned install though? The whole back seat install NW style (unless I wall it...) etc is pretty similar

Battery power: Oh I should have plenty of that when I get my new batt ;)

Hmm I have a much more positive outlook on the whole comp thing now :D Think I will need a much bigger alt at some point...

M:B

Ben, whatsd the difference between SS No Wall, and this new Street Pro class?

The differences between NW and SP are pretty simple.

In NW you can have upto 18 volts and can have floor mods. Upto 8 amps aswell.

SP is a bigger Street, 12 volt, no floor mods, 4 amps only.

SP is basically a stepping stone between Street and Super Street.

You wont get that whooped Lozzy, 4 SEs, plenty of power and good batteries will easily see 160 on the old mics.

Ben

thats a sigh of relief are the old mikes being used this season?

Nope, new mics at all dB Drag events this year.

They turned up on thursday ;)

Ben

Sweet! do you have to pay for them or does IASCA Pay for them ?

The new UK dB Drag rep has purchased the mics.

Ben

would that be you? :D

So you havnt seen all the posts by Loudboy/Darren announcing he has taken over dB Drag in the UK then and announcing his retirement from competition??

;)

Ben

i meant ECC really :red:

lol i was gonna say it would be mr loud boy :beam:

Technically it is Darren, he is the rep.

Ben

Any idea when the new rules will the finalised?

Itching to get building :)

Well Wayne Harris, the big boss man, is away on business at the moment.

Hes back in his office on monday so fingers crossed it will be sometime next week.
