a lot of things have been mentioned already, I think I can add some:
Get warriors and rogues in position at the 20 second sons warning.
While 40% is by no means bad, try to improve your dps even more :)
Set up a dps warrior/rogue as main assist. The whole raid puts dps on that target, as sons go down fast (has been mentioned. Less time sons are up = less time they can hurt your raid.
Don't kill the last sone before the timer gets close to Rags getting back. In our third and fourth Ragnaros kill we killed the last son way before the 15sec warning and lost positioning time. We all were very well aware that Rags would spawn the instant the last son dies, but the raid was in too much of a killing mood.
If you have a very healthy son up after Ragnaros reemerges, keep it banished and focus on Rags again right away. It will die with the firelord.
Avoid having MT or OT on the last two or so sons. They need to be in position to resume tanking right at the reemerge. We had a warrior tanking Ragnaros and a son at the same time. We took him (Ragnaros, not our tank ;)) down, but it makes things harder and can easily avoided with less headless chickeness than us.
DPS is king. Get more damage dealers and take less helaing. We did it with two priests and one druid and about seven shaman. If melee are careful, the raid should not need "that" much healing.
hope some helped
take care
