Congratulations on stuffing an amp...
Yes Reverse Doey's is a bad Idea, not only does it prove nothing but places excess stress on CV joints and suspension components..

If you sub is making a continous Thudding noise then the Amp is stuffed..

You left yourself wide open to ridicule after stating you did reverse donuts..
You could have stated your sub box was thrown around due to excessive cornering and no one would have known..

as long as you have learned from it then cool...

You wanted to know how to fix it..
You have been informed it is stuffed,send it off to be repaired or replace it...

Ziff we all havent done stupid things at some stage...

Check wiring, ensure none has frayed and is shorting out anywhere, (sub, power etc)

Yea, id say the amp is just stuffed. Send it for repairs if its expensive. Or if you like you can try and open it urself, do some testing see whats blown. i dunno.. but the amp is gone, ive had a few go on me and it does the same thing.
