Would anyone be willing and able to cut some class letters for me and bring them to the Challenge? 2x 'GTN$' at 4" tall please. I have my own magnetic numbers.

Also could use some clarification. The rules says numbers and classes required on sides AND rear. The resources section says sides only. https://2000challenge.com/resourcesdownloads.

In the past, I've had to put a paint-marked number on the rear window for drag racing timing purposes. Do we also need class marked on the rear of the car, or just number?

Last year it was just sides iirc.  I do NOT have numbers for the rear.  Eeek.

I can do them if someone wants to grab them from me on the way through, but I am not going to challenge- I am about two hours from the track. Best bet is probably jwhit- he is about a half hour from me, that is assuming someone else doesn't chime in first.

A trip to Lowe's or Home Depot or an Office Depot for vinyl numbers and letters and a little bit of time with a pair of scissors (to make an S into an $) might get you what you need. I've done that plenty of times. Bring a ruler or something with you to the store to make sure you have the right height and stroke.

Can you answer whether we need class on the back or not?

If you have a number on the back that should be sufficient.

Oops! Our bad on the numbers for the rear. I will update the rules to clarify that they are recommended, but not required. They help the track score drag passes. Thanks!

With a few minutes and a razor you might be able to make something useful?
