Hi guys,

first post here, so please feel free to let me know if I'm not wanted!

for the first time ever, MEA ACT will be running a four round series of sound off events around Canberra throughout 2009. The aim is to bring everyone interested in car sound together and see if we can get something happening in our little state! ;)

The first event will be held at:

Elite Car Sound & Vision

48 Weedon Cl

Belconnen, ACT

Sunday 15th Feb, 2009 10am

Yep, 3 weeks away! There will be 3 sound quality classes and 4 SPL classes. The idea is to make it as friendly as possible - low entry fees, fair SPL classes, trophies for winners, expert advice on how to get your system sounding better and louder, sausage sizzle, prizes and giveaways (best install, judges choice etc) and more.

Round 1 will have both an SQ and SPL competition with trophies for 1st and 2nd in each class. There may be spot prizes available throught the day too.

The classes for SPL will most likely be Street Stock 1, Street Stock 2, Street Stock 3 and Open Class. The street stock classes will be aimed at cars with a simple 1 battery system with no modifications to the car and will be dependant on the number and size of subs and amps. Anything that doesnt fit in the Street Stock classes compete in Open class. Please note this will not be a sanctioned dB Drag event.

For the Sound Quality (SQ) competition we will be running Novice, Intermediate, Expert and Show classes. Novice is limited to entrants who haven't entered a MEASQ compettion before. Intermediate is designed for more experienced entrants. Expert is designed for anyone who has modified audio gear or works in the car audio industry.

If you have a show car, we'd love to see you there!!!

Entry fees will be $25 for SQ, $10 for SPL and Novice class.

If you are keen on your car sound come down and run your car. There is currently a lack of a car audio scene in Canberra and MEAACT is on the path to fix all that, so show your support.

Thanks guys, and thanks to SAU for letting me post.

this is the first comp in a 4 round series, with a points table happening and cool prizes for the overall winner. We'll be running a grand champ prize as well over the year (ie points in both SPL and SQ, as well as the show n shine + dyno for the last event in october!!)

Let me know if you want more details, and if you could pass the message on to your crew I'd be very appreciative, as we're trying to get as many people down as possible!

thanks guys...

This was great fun guys. I learnt a lot about what I need to do to improve my stereo, and it's doesn't involve buying new parts, like I thought!

Come have a look at the next one if you couldn't make this one.

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
