Hi guys.
Well, after long last, I am very pleased to announce...
Click to view attachmentWe are asking all those involved with MEA to help get involved, get organised and get enthusiastic about this event. If there's any chance you can help publicise it, or, better still, show up and compete, we would love to hear from you.
Thanks once again,
the MEACT team

Good work Matt, and good to see it all coming together

Now it just needs the support of the NSW and ACT members to continue the momentum.

what classes will be running in this event?
For SPL St A, B, C, OPEN
And
SQ Novice, Intermediate and Expert street. Each SQ class will depend on getting at least 3 competitors in each. Trophies for 1st and 2nd place in both SQ and SPL.

still wanting an approximate confirmation on NSW competitors coming for the SQ events too.
rick, any luck with Marty? Hakki, do you know anywhere we can use for a judges' training?
thanks guys!!!

I'll probably have nothing to compete with, but I'll see what happens - I just might pop down to show support.
After all, the MX-5 could use a nice long drive.
I'll see what happens!
Are judges needed for the day, or is that side of things sorted out already?
P.s. Anyone else from NSW considering going by? If so might be able to arrange a 'cruise down' with the NSW boys!

Judges; if all goes according to plan, we'll be covered. However, we'd be happier with some extras.

If you guys need a judge let me know.
Being July 13th is plenty of notice, so I can arrange to have the day off and confirm my presence if i'm really needed.
The comp will be right in the middle of my intra-session break, so uni isn't a problem.
I really would like to come along, as i've been away from car audio for a long time now (or at least it feels like a long time). Wagga 2007 seemes like a decade ago!

As some of you are already aware, there is a judge's training day planned for sunday 29th June. Anyone interested should contact me

that includes you, muzzy, if you're keen.
AFAIK, we should be right for judges, but having someone there on the day to hang out with and give us a hand would be awsome!
peace

Where will the training night be held?
I'd really like to come but it wouldn't be easy to make it. Taking one day off isn't so bad, but taking two Sundays off in three weeks may not be as easy!

It's an afternoon in Sydney (ASLAN Acoustics). Should be easy for you. As mentioned, see Matt for more details.

I have not been on this forum for a long time, decide to check here today and find this - awesome, finally an SQ comp i can enter after getting a cheapish SQ system last year.
will endevour to be there so long as nothing important comes up, is SQ being judged via the normal MEASQ score system? or something different?
Cheers

hey chops nice to have you back on board!
yep the comp is in a couple of weeks, and we will be having a test and tune at my place the week prior with an RTA setup (WON'T WE MAT

) so make sure you come along for that one. If you're interested in getting involved with the organisation and social side of things too, we're all meeting up at the yacht club in Yarralumla on tuesday 24th June at 6pm.
Cheers!

Matt VIP

We weren't planning on running any of the show classes. But I guess if numbers on the day warrant it, it can be done.

There will be a 'best install' type award, but none of the MEASQ Show class judging.
Just don't think we'll have sufficient numbers at this early stage.

if me and Kirk come, we may be able to do some sort of judging..

still should be a fun day though, might have a few drinkies round the barbie at ours afterwards too

Jun 24 2008, 02:05 PM
Mark, are you heading down for certain? Im not sure who else is going, but we should organise a bit of a convoy down or something, at this stage i think its only me and you, and possibly trism and Jono, but both are unsure.
We should get it sorted and organised closer to the date.
