iv been trying to tell people that for ever, I did not know the technical side of it ie mATH, but I do know that you cannot create or destroy energy only transfer it, therefore any energy transferred into the vehicle itself is a loss Thats y extreme guys use steel and concrete in their 180db vehicles

I really hate flexing! my car it´s dampened all over and there´s still a little bit of flexing, flex kills your score

I agree with this video on the more common competetions formats that requires measuremet from the inside but when it comes to drive by spl and i tested this. more flex the better. my drive by scores were down at finals because i deadend my roof and doors. i was louder in testing before that.

Pete said it way better then I could. But he's right. It seams some people like the wang of metal flapping. In trying to get mine somewhat under control with the front doors. And im at the point theres not much I can do to the front part of the roof cause the wall is in now and the front half moves like crazy.

To a certain extent it does. it is very difficult even with sound deadener to kill all flex. i would actually worry more about my enclosure flexing then the body panels themselves. even with flexing u can still get alot of pressure if the enclosure is built like a tank.Some examples is Tommy Mckinnie, Frankie Rio and the Riley's old RF flamer van.
