Number plate background colour for CKRC races

Post by evannadeau »

Hello everyone. I saw in club member videos the blue backgrounds, and then had a read through the regs and saw that ROK VLR has different colours.

White numbers over Blue for Senior. And white over red for masters. Is this what we should be following for all CKRC races?

And I'm sure it's not required, but would it be suggested to follow their 3 digit numbering scheme as well?

Thanks.

Yes. colour scheme is followed:

SR - White on Blue
Mstr - white on red

the 3 digit wasn't adhered to, probably because of the size of the group

Not sure if Fred will be sticky on it this year...

IMHO - in the US(COA, RtR, etc) it's all black on yellow, with the 1st digit signifying class (8 for masters, 3 for SR)...so to have not only a color combo, but a numeric identifier is a bit much....

Note that our scoreboard only holds two digits, so if you pick three the whole number will never be displayed.

You bet, thanks Jack, I've read all the stuff related to numbers in our regs, and saw that mentioned in there. I just want to make sure I prep my Kart appropriately. I'd prefer to go with my two digit number anyway ( already reserved ). And I'm not intending to head to any USA events, so I think I'm safe.

Only 2 numbers required (Hence different colour plates) easier to separate on track as we run both Seniors and Masters together.
