3 WHEEL SHOWDOWN SOUND COMPETITION RULES

Each competition category (featherweight, lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight) must have at least five contestants in order for the $1000 prize to be given for that category.

• No buybacks due to the number of competitors and time constraints.  The practice of charging participants to continue once eliminated will not be used.

•    Each Slingshot must be registered with the correct Class (FW, LW, MW, HW, EXTRM)

•    Each participant will meet at the host table to randomly draw numbers to see what order they will enter the ring to compete. All Grudge matches will be after the Event. 

•    It will be up to you to ensure you are logged into your equipment i.e. (Radio/DSP). Please log into your equipment prior to entering the ring.

•        Once you've pulled into the ring you will have 2 minutes to address technical issues, if after 2 minutes you are not ready to compete you will be disqualified.

•    Each Slingshot must be able to pull in and out of the ring under its own power. If you cannot drive in or out of the ring, your Slingshot WILL be disqualified.

•    Clipping is an AUTOMATIC disqualification. A CLIP is any interruption of sound from your Slingshot audio. This includes Loss of sound from one or more of your Slingshots systems (Tweeters, Mids, Subwoofers). * A majority of the judges judging the bikes have to hear the clip. If you receive a text or call during the competition you will be disqualified.

If a judge finds you have clipped, he/she will have the final word. Any argument will result in immediate disqualification.

•    Tunning (adjusting DSP, EQ or Crossover) during the competition is prohibited and will be an immediate Disqualification. Adjusting a bass knob or volume will not be considered tuning. If a judge finds you were tuning or someone else in the crowd is tuning, you will be disqualified.
