How it Works

Categories:   There are no categories …… when being judged you will be asked What you were trying to create i.e. Bass Monster, A Car park/Cruise Blaster, A Full-on Show Car look, A “Sound Quality” Build, A Multimedia Explosion Showcar etc etc. and you will be judged on how well we feel your goal has been achieved.

You will also be judged on

Design & Layout:

When judging. Does the system have proper power distribution and fusing? Does the system exhibit good ease of use, are all the components easily accessible, etc?

Install Quality:

Is the system going to fall apart? Are there wires loose or hanging about? Does the system have dangling wires or exposed copper? Is there attention to detail? Does the system interfere with the normal use of the vehicle? These are some of the things you should look for when scoring on installation quality.

All components of the system should be properly fixed there should not be any risk to travel in the car.

Does the install exhibit unique creativity such as custom fiberglassing, speaker pods, door panels, and custom sub box design?

Questions

Will I be judged on the Quality or make of Equipment?

No, the make of the equipment used is entirely up to your brand preference and budget.

Will I get more points for having more Subs Amps, Multimedia etc?
