dB Drag Racing

Posted by michael on from the highway-to-the-danger-zone dept.

Exedore writes "For a paltry $80,000 outlay, you too can fight back against the punk kids blasting gangsta rap from their Honda Civics. Enter the strange (and rather loud) world of dB Drag Racing and join a small group of dedicated competitors in their quest for the loudest car sound system possible. The numbers: 130,000 watts output, 177dB, 10,000 lbs. of equipment (including the vehicle and all the sound insulation needed to protect those nearby). It might not be quite up to Disaster Area standards, but it's not far off."

    I listen to all kinds of music, since I have a teenager and have to keep up. I even like some Good Charlotte and Linkin Park songs (but Pink Floyd is the Best!)

    But why is it the Rap stations only have commecials for used car lots, and bail bondsmen?

    Off topic. Nevermind.
