Hi there,

I am preparing my bodywork to paint it, and I was wondering what colour should the background of the numbers.

The fact is I want my bodywork to be black, and I would like the numbers to be white, without any other background colour than the black.

I just hat a look in the ACU handbook and found this:

The front and side number plates for each class of motorcy
125cc Black background White numbers
250cc Green background White numbers
350cc Blue Background White numbers
500cc Yellow background Black numbers
1000cc White background Black numbers
1300cc Red background White numbers
Superbike White background Black numbers
Supersport 400 Blue background White numbers
Formula 400 Blue background White numbers
Supersport 600 White background Blue numbers
Formula 600 White background Blue numbers
Supermono Black background Yellow numbers
Sto cksp o r t Red background White numbers
FII Sidecars Red background White numbers
Open Sidecars White background Black numbers

Any idea for us ?

tonio i booked the test day on the 29th today are you setting up camp at the circuit if so any ideas what facilities there are? and are you going thursday evening or early friday morning.

[Tonio600]

I am going thursday evening. I live in West Sussex so I shouln't be there before 11PM. Installing the tent will be a lot of fun. But because we have to sign in at 8AM the Friday, I have no choice. No idea about the facilities, but I asked if I could camp around the circuit and she told me of course, so I hope there will be some facilities...

Toilets and Showers and a canteen-pub.

Toilets and shower (singular) unless they've spent some money over the winter.

Cadwell is predominantly a 'soft' paddock; so appart from some hard standing near the scrutineering shed the rest of it is grass - a great place to camp and there is a huge field next to the paddock area for visitors / late arrivers.

The place is well equiped with new (about three years old) toilet blocks but for some reason they didn't build any new showers at the same time, so there are two shower cubicles (for men - haven't been into the ladies so can't comment!) for the whole site!!

The club house houses a great 'greasy spoon' which does heart attack specials for breakfast, lunch and dinner and there is an adjoining bar for lunch and evening ****ing it up (my personal tradition is to head into Louth on a Saturday night for a killer curry).

When the sun shines a Cadwell race weekend is 'the best place to be - ever', whether racing or spectating / supporting. When the weather is bad it's plain 'orid.

"When the weather is bad it's plain 'orid."-that would have been over Easter then................Bloody cold and foggy, basically crap, and we didn't even race.
