Well probably a year ago "someone" was talking about introducing a new SQ format to Western Canada. What ever happened to that group of guys from Sask ? & the purposed new format ? Don't get me wrong IASCA is pulling there pants up & changing the rules & making it easier for people to compete. But we need somthing to bring more people out to shows.Is there any suggestions on what our community (CCA) can do to help inprove SQ competitions & draw in bigger crowds & more competitors. People tell me that SPL & SQ are on a curve & it will turn around back to SQ , Well when is this going to happen . Poeple have been saying this for the last 3-4 years.But like I said , before i started to ramble ,whatever happened to the "new" format plans ?

You wanna know what you can do to help along any sort of shows? Pick what format you like, for example IASCA, and then start asking around and hyping the format to anyone you know interested in audio. Ask these people to commit to attending any shows that may develop, record their names and potential classes, and go into you local cool audio dealer and present him with the list. This shows some commitment from the customer base.

Most shops shy away from doing any kind of show because they are afraid that attendance will be poor and it takes work to organize. Do half their work by spreading the word and then show them that they will at least have marginal success and it becomes more attractive to the retailer. All it takes is 20 cars to have a semi decent show - of course more are better

Wandering into a shop and asking if they are gonna have any shows this year is going to be unproductive

I see ALL kinds of people on here that all sound so hardcore and excited but then they don't do **** about it. Want a show - make it happen! Show your dealer it WILL be worth their effort. Put in the time. Who knows, if you do a good enough job organizing stuff maybe you could get the reputation as a promoter and shops may PAY you to have this kind of fun [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

I think after last years IASCA season it will be easier to get retailers to do shows. If James can approach them and say last usually had_# guys show up, # of hardcores that won't miss this show, and # of people interested in going out and trying it. I'd like to see SQ comps all the way for Vancouver Island to Regina.

Who u calling hard core! James did an increadable job organizing, promoting,teaching ect. I personaly ow him tons and I'm hooked to boot. [img]graemlins/@bow.gif[/img] I feel that many of us can learn from people like him and I'd do another year if Mr. IASCA aka James would do it! I've gone to the Db stuff and liked it just to hard on me. Think Sq is where it's at just not much of an show pleaser. [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
