Number boards

Unread post by helen d »

Anyone got rules on size/ colours of number boards for an f2 doing the bsb british? There's nothing in the supplementary regs so does the ACU book apply or do I need to look elsewhere? (please, thank you :D )

Interesting point, the long bikes technically should be white boards as they're not F2 but it would be better if 600s were red boards really rather than F1/F2.

I don't know, by the way but have of course asked MDMD as he have the definitive answer ;)

But some are f2 with red boards already, hence the question :mrgreen: I think for the 600 cup there should be something so spectators can tell the long 600s apart (not just that the white and red bike is leading :lol: )

To paraphrase Mdmd.
We will ask teams running long outfits with 600s to run white numbers on a red background, the same as short chassis bikes, they can then be differentiated from long ones with 1000s in them as they would still run black on white.

Hi
world championship runs white boards with black numbers on all 600 bikes. In the sidecar trophy we leave it open to run the colours if the numbers. white or red board. It is a change but we can live with it.Only insider could understand different colours for F1, F600 or F2 bikes. At the end the winner is the one first in over the finish line.
bye Eckart
