Default Re: Competition Number Size

Just checked that as it's on my short list. 6 inches high and 1.5 inches wide minimum. Going to get crowded on the side window on my 68 coup. Can the numbers be on the B pillar? The one behind the window?

I'd place the blame for this on Michael Beard and his $100 name and number package. I've seen his Flaming Numbers special on bracket cars and S/ST. Just kidding, but I think some people get a bit too artsy with numbers.

As for no one paying attention, I rely on window numbers to identify and properly credit racers when I take my camera out to the drags. That and the entry list that I usually steal...

Then there's people like Jody Lang who lets his girl friend drive his super stocker and has the tower playing "Who's in that car?" when he's standing next to it.
