Numbers

[larrybard]

Are the minimum dimensions for DE numbers specified somewhere?  If not, is there some informal standard, e.g., 5"?

Thanks,

Larry

Just read the Zone 1 rules, they state a MINIMUM of 4" high.

Hi Larry, If you are going to participate in Zone 1 events, 4" numbers are fine. But Riesentoter requires 8" numbers on the side and a minimum of 5" numbers when used on the front or back.

Wally,

I appreciate the information.  Where is that requirement stated? (I have absolutely no problem with it; I'm just curious.)

The RTR DE Manual only state that numbers be visible from 200 feet away.  Considering you are on a track at speed; 8" really works well for a corner worker to see. 

That way everyone on the radio will KNOW who's getting the trophy and who's getting the blue flag. 

I hear it has a stripe on it too, but I'm not exactly sure...

Me and the ole'44 don't see it that often

hee-hee

Hi Larry, We defer to PCA Club Racing Rules. They require 8" minimum on the side of the car and 4" minimum front and rear which we generally ask for 5".
