Anyone know how CCS is enforcing the new numbers regulations for 1125Rs? Can I still just stick numbers on my seatcover? | ||

down here in ccs/sw if you run a single set of numbers on top of the tail you have to run a set under the tail so the can see your number in the event of a crash. or we can run small numbers down at the bottom on the side.-anderw | ||

I have used colored duct tape (yellow or white) for the background if needed - and didn't have to zip-tie number plates. Post up on the CCS discussion board - I THINK they'll let you fly with single-sided numbering on a tail section but ONLY on the side facing start/finish scoring staff. Means you may have to change your numbers from right to left depending on track. BUT it has been 4 years since CCS stopped their Western Region racing and also ended F-USA(bummer!) From the CCS/ASRA Rules http://www.ccsracing.us/forms/2009/rules/2009%20as ra-ccs%20rulebook.pdf 5.3 NUMBER DISPLAY REGULATIONS 5.3.1 Numbers will be assigned by CCS or ASRA. 5.3.2 Expert CCS Sprint Riders will use white display areas or plates. Amateur CCS Sprint Riders will use yellow display areas or plates. 5.3.3 All ASRA Expert riders will use white display areas or plates. All ASRA Amateur riders will use yellow display areas. 5.3.4 Number plates, or number display areas, will be a minimum of 10 by 12 with radiused corners. 5.3.5 Painted displays or separate plates. A. Front display may be painted only if the front section of the fairing is of adequate size and display is clearly legible. Otherwise, a 10 by 12 plate must be mounted. The front display area must be unbroken by air intakes, and only one number display will be allowed. (1.) If the rider chooses to position the front number display to the side of the air intake, that number display MUST be on the same side as the scoring station used during each event. (i.e. if you are competing at Summit Point, the front display must be on riders right. If you are competing at Roebling Road, the front display must be on riders left.) It is the riders responsibility to have the number display on the correct side before coming to Tech Inspection. B. Side displays may be painted on rear body work only if that body work presents a basically flat surface of adequate area. Otherwise, a 10 by 12 plate must be mounted. The side plate must be mounted on the seat or tail section and to the rear of the rider. Mounting must be high enough to insure that the number is clearly visible when the machine is leaned (cornering) without interference caused by rider extremities or machine parts. (1.) If the tail section profile does not allow the machine to comply with Section 5.3.5.B, the side number displays MAY be placed on the side of the fairing in front of the rider as long as the number displays are clearly visible while the rider is in the racing position If the rider chooses to place the side number display on the fairing, a single number display on the top of the tail section must also be installed and orientated to be read from the rear of the machine.. It is the rider’s responsibility to have the number display correct before coming to Tech Inspection. 5.3.6 Numbers must be black and approximately 8” high and 1” wide, of standard block lettering with no shading, outlining or serifs. Number must be spaced approximately 1” from each other as well as the edge of the plate or display area. 6” or 4” numbers may be used on the rear plates as long as the number is clearly visible at speed. All numbers on any display must be the same size. 5.3.7 The following samples show the type style required to comply with these rules: (NOTE from Slaughter) - these font samples are not applicable here in Badweb - go to PDF for references l 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 5.3.8 Number plates must be free from any stickers or sponsorship logos except as required by specific class rules. 5.3.9 Final approval of non-compliant number display will rest with the Race Director or Referee. | ||

an 1125R tail sure isn't 10x12. I'll get a couple sheets of #s from Kinko's and see what they let me do. Thanks all |
