Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

It's pretty hard to read the numbers on (most) bikes these days as they aren't done to the rules. So spotting the bike you want to Black flag is hard enough. Getting the numbers ready is the next issue.

Be small fields if bikes had to go back to the old-style number boards.
They are easy to see though.

Something I remember Neil Ritchie complaining about at a MNZ AGM, why aren't the rules regarding size enforced?
Is it just because of transponder usage?
"If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."
Saving the goat....

That's the reason I hear. But if there is no number how can we Black flag a bike? Or any other flag? Follow the rule book would be the answer I guess.

Oh fuck you're so funny
A proper pit board with flip over number thingys, or a board with magnetic numbers, heaps of ways around it

End of last year's Vic series, I did a full set of numbers for Grubb (RIP) to use at the S/F line. 3 of every # 0-9. They were stuck onto card that slotted into channels on the pit board. Just imagine the logistics of trying to issue and keep track of that for every flag point?

So only do it at 1/2 the flag points then?

Make a supplementary regulation to cover it

gee wizzz
There is a size requirement which suggests to me that those really big black felt pens would be needed OR a really nice kind sighnwrighter could make up 6 sets of 3 numbers 1-0 -30 numbers per marshal point. Ive seen em used elsewhere-its a simple flip board -3 numbers wide white background black numbers and you flip to the number needed.
Ie-the board is initially a blank 500mm wide by 300mm high sheet with 3 stacks of numbers hung on the back so you just flip over to the number needed.
the thing is it needs to be quickly used and useable in all conditions.
Actually mstrs once again money where mouth is YOU make em I will pay for em. PROVIDED they are available for all clubs to use -

OK.
I move that we use the red flag, with obvious pointing, hand sign instructions and general gesticulating to single out a bike that needs to be off the track.
It should have worked, except it wasn't in the rule book.

It is in the rule book.
The issue with the rule "book" IMO is that MNZ seem to have stopped giving out the actual BOOKS (unless you specifically request them) and refer you to their website.
I'm finding the website pretty hard to actually navigate.
