What format do my race numbers need to be in?

The Car and Bike Drag Racing Yearbook(White Book) contains all the regulations for race numbers.

Supplementary Regulation 4.7 states that

Quote:
Numbers must be displayed in accordance with the specific class format; affixed in such a way to ensure their durability and legibility and be of sufficient contrast to their background. They shally be subject to the approval of Chief Timekeeper.

The specific class format is defined in GSR 7.3 which states

Quote:
Any car competing at FIA and/or MSA events must display the drivers Competition number. Numbers must be a minimum 152mm (6-inches) high and 38mm (1 1/2 inches) wide. Class designation letters must be a minimum 76mm (3-inches) high and 25,4mm (1 inch) wide. Drivers competition number and class designation must be displayed in a legiable manner in a contrasting color to the vehicles background colour, or light colour on windows, in a prominent position, and must be clearly visible to the Tower personnell. Class and numbers must be in the form of permenant decals or paint. The use of shoe polish in any form is prohibited.

So there you have it, 6-inch tall, light or contrasting numbers in either decal or paint, No Shoe Whitener.

You can purchase race number (and all sorts of other) decals from club sponsor Slook
