Ta-dah!
In reply to Tom Suddard :
I'm sure I'm not the first to ask this, but have you considered letting the teams pay for having their decals mailed to them prior to the event?
It would be more exposure for the sponsors, since most teams either drive their entry or tow on an open trailer, and the application would probably look much better vs. doing it in the hotel parking lot in the dark.

Oh I like this. Almost like the Great Race with everyone ending up in Gainesville.
Let me see what I can do there. In the past it's been exceedingly challenging getting sponsor decals more than a few days before the event, but now that we print them ourselves it might be do-able.
Done. You'll now see an option to pay an additional $10 and have your decals mailed to you.
If you've already registered, you should be able to login to MSR and add that option.
In reply to Tom Suddard :
Awesome, thanks Tom! As soon as I confirm my car actually runs/drives/turns/stops without any colossal failures I'll be signing up!!!
Just realized that my next two cars will have the four wheels at the very corners of the car. I can put them anywhere as long as the number is behind the sponsors.

This is awesome!!! Thanks, Tom!!!
Ooh, I really like being able to get the decals early- it will make traveling down to the Challenge a bit more fun (and mean less rushing at the event trying to figure out how to put on the decals and panels).
Also glad to see that we can put the small number panel on the decklid since it would likely make it impossible to see out the back window of the E46 convertible (that and I expect I'll have the top down most of the time, excepting I believe having to have it up for the drags).
I really need to sit down and go over my budget. Once that is done I'll be officially signing up and you bet I'll find $10 somewhere so I can drive out in a legit stickered up and numbered racecar. Woot!
Any word on if the decals have been shipped as of yet? No mention of them in the latest update email.
Thanks.
Is there any flexibility on the windshield banner location. I wasn't expecting the background to be white. It is going to lead to some vision problems for me due to my height:
Here is how I have dealt with it in the past but I don't think it will work for the challenge banner:
Email me (tom@grassrootsmotorsports.com) for an official exemption due to a lack of necessary bodywork; without an exemption there's no flexibility and you'll get the 10 point concours score deduction. If it will work for you, I'll ask you to put it along the base of the windshield or else across the leading edge of the hood.
