Who Competes?

Sounds like you should invest $25 into a volt meter to keep an eye on drop to ensure you don't damage anything. Very small investment that will save you hundreds.

and a security system

Pretty sure its a wiring issue, I think I can't for the life of me remember what gauge wire I have I think its 8 gauge, anyways I have my Type R wired to 2 ohms on an alpine mrx-m100 @1000watts, probably too much power being drawn at that watts for my 8gauge. The volt meter is on my todo list though.

I would compete/attend but there's only 1 comp in fla a year from each organization.

There are more then that with in driving distances of Florida I'm sure. I didn't check last years scheduling though.

i just enjoy driving out to them and meeting new people. next year im hoping to venture into more than dbdrag/bassrace. hoping that if iasca comes to cali then i will be doing some of that, and maybe even try out some meca classes if there are some somewhat closer to me.

I would love if I had any option other than USACi within 300 miles. I'd really like to do BassRace.

Pretty you're not correct on this one. Just a simple search on termpro showed 2 in the month of June alone.

To be honest I don't enjoy competing and shows. Biggest reason I just tipped my hat after I got knocked off the hill. I'd rather stay home then go to a show anymore.

Yes they come in June 1 was Mecca and the other was iasca(?) but one doesn't even do a show in fla their in Tennessee and I'm not drivin 12 hours to go to a show for 6 hours max..

I drive much more then 12 hours for shows and I don't compete any longer(retired). When i did I went all over the US... literally.

If MECA would learn how to promote shows, maybe people would show up.

Well now everyone is in the same job class as car audio or money bracket as some people. And driving at $4 a gallon even in my coupe I'm still looking at a huge gas bill and hotel stay and that don't even count my friends car.. I think a better promotion and representation of the organizations would allow ppl to give a better turn out IMO. 1 show per organization kinda shows a small amount of interest in the fla region and I have been to many local small shows and seen huge suv installs burp boxes hitting 155+ and even a 165 and couple 160+ sealed on the dash.

More shows more interest IMO...

If they would find a way to make the shows not boring as hell more people would show up as well.
