I H Freelance Services Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hi i have registered for the speed series and local car club sprints this year , i see looking at the blue book if i read it correctly you are allocated number to put on your car at each meeting so i assume that you have to carry a stock of numbers with you so you can apply the allocated number at that particular event , what do others do to comply with this ruling ? if this is the case wheres the best place to get these numbers from . many thanks Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also gaffa tape a number but it does not look as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Everall Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Many of us use a white backound that stays on the car and onto which we "stick" the number. I you carefully rove them that can even be reused a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Everall Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Remember when you fill in an entry form you are the driver NOT an Entrant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the MSA 9" type 2 font version. Doesn't matter about backing, colour etc, as with all things MSA, some things they are nonsensically strict about, other things they allow free abandon with! You'll see all sorts of number size, font, colour, location etc going on. As long as the timing marshalls can read it, it seems to be fine.

This is usually the case but sometimes people who wish to promote businesses also get an MSA entrants licence so that the company name appears on the entry lists etc. This 'may' be the case with Iain as he has a company. If not, then its just driver as Terry says 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, except that there is one scrutineer who is apparently colour blind! He objected to me using black numbers directly onto the red bodywork of my car. He didn't fail me, but strongly suggested I should get a white background to put the numbers on. Fortunately I only came across him twice, so ignored his advice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
