People spend so much money to compete in these competitions and only win trophies i don't get why bein 1 db louder than the next guy is so important. Like how money can u win for first place? Would it even cover what u had to spend?

You win plastic trophies, not $$$. Few orgs do have some cash classes but it's not much.

Personally I'd do 3/4" wood in the roof and save the car vs worrying about a class. He'd still be fine for bass racing as that's pretty much an anything goes class...

for 2 hdd 12s ronal told me between 4.5 and 5 cubes with 55-60 inches of port

yessir, going with 5 cubes for the pair while im only using one bc3500 at .5. Although 60 sq inches of port with 5 cubes is only 12 per cube i was thinking more like 14 or 15 a cube

Use smaller pieces so that it makes good contact with the roof the use liquid nails then deaden over it

Save the car, save money and sound better/louder when he is all said and done. 100% coverage of cld tiles gets expensive in a hurry, especially when your talking multiple layers to make them to something they aren't designed to do, brace lol.

Anyway get some fairly thin, but stiff wood.. Just enough flex to it to mold to your roof and glue it up there.. Liquid nails or silicon should suffice to keep it up there. Sunroofs that aren't braced tend to end up breaking at some point, too many moving parts to be flexing like that.

3/4" hardwood will fit fine, I've done a LOT of roofs. PL Premium is the glue to use...
