I dont quite understand the controversy. I read it through a couple of times but I'm lost. Generally, our students get a packet with vinyl numbers and a colored (Green, Blue, Yellow, White)sticker. The numbers are meaning less, the sticker color determines the run group. When they advance to another run group they get a new colored sticker. The colored sticker is a a different shape for each club.
How did this thread get turned into an "instructor's" stcker conversation, the author was simply asking where his BMW CCA window sticker should go...Geez!
This may be the first time its happened in the history of the Internet. It appears that the OP is apparently long gone.
Jeron and Chris...you are right....both are AWOL from their original "posts". (sorry for the weak military humor. 10 years active duty will do that to a guy) That said, I apologize if I "hijacked" something....not my intent. Anyway, C.R., thank you for backing up my "story" as it were. I was hoping I was not the only one that knew what I was talking about. Sounds like I missed the part about the vinyl stickers AND the colored sticker being used together. That makes more sense they would just get a different sticker if they were moved up in run group that particular weekend, otherwise, they would just get a new colored sticker at the next school. I like sharing ideas. Certainly changing a colored sticker is easier than changing the vinyl number from a 1 to 2 for example. Will bring this up at our next DE meeting. We have our first event in late April so we have a bit of time.
I wasn't really explaining it in detail at first, just answering the question about the colored sticker.
I'm on the bike today so I cant send a photo but I just remembered the pics are online from a previous event. Heres a pic of me, my student, the sticker, my taped on number. Instructors usually don't get vinyl numbers because many already have permanent numbers. http://www.hart-photography.com/photocart/index.php?do=photocart&viewImage=570400 Here I am in front of a F430 (that didnt last). http://www.hart-photography.com/photocart/index.php?do=photocart&viewImage=569509 http://www.hart-photography.com/photocart/index.php?do=photocart&viewImage=570044 Heres a good one with some daylight under my inside tire. http://www.hart-photography.com/photocart/index.php?do=photocart&viewImage=569531
I'm reminded of that old joke.... "Waiter! Waiter! There's a fly in my soup!!" "Madam! Please! Shhhh!!! Everyone will want one!"
