There are 14 different classes available for dB Drag. From systems that have 1 12" all the way up to 12 15"s and more. A few of the main aspects making up the different classes are: the number of subs, amps and batteries involved. Then whether it is in a "wall" or not. below is a "class matrix" so you can see the different classes and what is/is not allowed in each of them. Hope this helps! See you at the show. http://www.termpro.com/dbdrag/rules/2010/rules.asp?Org_ID=1 | dB Drag Racing Class Matrix Reference | | Class | Normal Use | Vehicle Mods | Woofer Qty | Walls | | Street Stock A | B-Pillar Forward |
