The Place

"The only issue is if the timekeepers complain they can't read your number."

Transponder timing nowadays I believe

Numbers are not only for timekeepers, Marshals need to be able to see them in order to identify any machine which may be cause of concern and the paying public also like to know who is who. You never know peeps your next sponsor may be watching.

Thank you Artie. I'm fed up of explaining that one

......and you also need the number so you can find your bike in pit lane and the holding bay area, it does get rather crowded in those places you know

Dan, that only works if you can remember your (one's) number.

You write it in indelible ink on your passenger's forehead and on the back of their neck too in case they rub it off when they are banging their head against the wall ..........and try not to change passenger

Providing you can remember where the pit lane is Dan .

I just used to follow all the other slidey people Geoff, you either get to the pit lane or the beer tent . If it's the first it's ok, if it's the second it's......well....
