Sound-Off Competition - Car Audio (https://www.facebook.com/mecacaraudio/)

MECA Sound Quality League Car Audio Competition: The sound system competition, also known as

sound-off or SPL - Sound Pressure League, is part of our event for car audio enthusiasts to compete

against each other to see who can produce the highest sound pressure levels in their vehicles right

here at the heart of Lake Sakakawea.

The objective is to generate the loudest and most powerful sound possible with clarity and minimum

distortion. Originality, custom work & design will also be taken into consideration.

Burnout Contest

The Burnout Contest is your chance to perform & show how well you can keep the vehicle stationary

while spinning its wheels on the asphalt by "The Point". You have 30 seconds to create some smoke.

All participants must sign a waiver.

Scavenger Hunt

There will be a scavenger hunt at participating New Town businesses. Collect a sticker at each stop and share photos on social media for a chance to win a prize. Watch for more information.

This year, the entry fees will once again be donated to the New Town City Library for their First LEGO League and First LEGO Robotics. This program has been the recipient of the entry fees since 2023.

The proceeds from the benefit breakfast will be given to the New Town Eagles Backpack Program.
