Whats the point on spending a bunch of money on a setup just to go key on someone that's right next to you?

I'll key on you from over here.

If I key up right next to you...You'll be heading to the nearest CB Shop to buy some new equipment.

Why does a baseball player try to hit a homerun?
Why does a hockey player try to score a goal?

I understand the point of having a big fancy setup. I just don't see the point going to somewhere to key on one another and run the risk of losing big $. Unless you run homemade equipment that works great then that's awesome. I ain't trying to be rude to your maulers thayts just coming from my point of view. Continue keying up everyone

Are you talking about "Shoot-Out's?" If so, your missing the whole point of a Shoot-Out...

Shoot-Out's are for two things....Bragging Right's, and Money!

Bragging rights that you have the Baddest Mobile in the area..
And the money comes from the events.

At a Shoot-Out, if it's a event where people come from all over, and pay a "Entry Fee", then there's usually Money and sometimes Trophy's given away to the winner's of each class...

"Class's" being a "2-pill class", 4 pill, 8 pill, etc....." They even have a "Sky's the Limit" class...

Way it works is you will enter a class for whatever your running, Like if your main Amp is a 4 pill, then you would enter the 4 pill class...Then you would line up right next to someone else with a 4 pill, and when told to "GO", you key-down and make as much noise as you can, trying to key over the guy next to ya....

A few miles away there will be another person listening, and he will be the judge on who was the loudest...Usually the guy doing the judging will also be doing a watergate (tapping) to keep things fair...

Depending on how many people enters each class, winner of each heap will move on to the next round, and you will go again, and the winner keeps moving up till there's a over-all winner...

Down side of Key-Downs, YES, you can blow your stuff up...But you can also win hundreds of dollars! (And a Trophy!)

-and all the bragging rights that go with being the winner...

Think of it as a NASCAR Race...Sponsors spend thousands of dollars on a car, thousands more on just the paint job, and then they let some guy go out and tare the thing up!

...They want that Trophy, Bragging rights, and the money....everything else is expendable...
