Biggest increase from show to show?


Recommended Posts

Hey peeps, I was just wondering if any of you know what the biggest SPL increase is from one person, from one show to the next, in MECA? Or any organized competitions. Is this something that is kept as a record?

I am determined to set some kind of record this year, and since it probably wont be a SPL record in my class, I was thinking maybe I will have the biggest SPL increase? The last show I attended, I did a 140.6, and I got a feeling I will have increased well over 10dbs since then! So does anyone know what would be the biggest increase from one show to the next?

Just trying to find something realistic to shoot for! Thanks to all for your time!

^^ this.. people sandbag all the time.. in some instances people go to finals say doing a 150.. they magically do a 60+ at finals because they didnt need it at the shows they went to get their points

This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned

plus your talking about competing in a new year from the last show correct? records dont count in the next year.

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

Man that sandbagging shit is for the birds! I really hate that shit! If I ran the comp I would disqualify anyone for that immediately. I think it compromises the integrity of our sport.

So none of the world records stand from year to year? I guess I'm confused, nothing new!

easiest way to post a record is sign up for a class no one competes in lol

Hmm not a bad idea. Extreme classes are usually empty...

pussy shit! we had a guy at meca state finals who registered for a higher class that no one was in just so he could get the big trophy. that isnt winning sir, thats admitting your system sucks and you had no chance in your own class so you took the easy way out. its called a competition for a reason. if you lose, you try harder to be better, accept your position, or you go home and quit. winning in car audio only gets you respect. wining against no one, on purpose gets you disrespect.

Seems to me that the person in question had a mod 3 build in his truck. His transmission went out in said vehicle, so he drove what is basically his family car that has all types of mods to state finals and competed in the class that his car qualified in..So I certainly hope that you are not talking about my teammate. And if you are, that really makes YOU look like the person that you are demeaning in your post with such negative connatation about competition.

If you are not speaking about my teammate, then I digress. However, since Ackawilly was the only 1 at finals who was previously in another class and moved to a empty higher class, I assume that you are... In the future before you arbitraily assume something about someone or their build; remember that cars break down, people get in wrecks and equipments blows. For that reason, someone may have no choice but to enter a future show in a different class. You have previously been a voice of reason for Bassick that many respect, I certainly hope that you will continue being that person.
