I'm gunna do a commentator crib sheet folder thingy.

An easy reference, one page per rider, in number order, easy flip through, foldery type thing.

So that the commentator can just flip through easily during the race and see who is who, and what they're riding, where they're from.

Each time I'll put new champ tables in etc

Was thinking...

Name
Age
Town
Years racing
Sponsors
Best result
Champ position
Shoe size?

Don't want anything too complicated. Just quick bullet points really. So they know what they're on about. I could email Fred Clarke really - he'd tell me what info is useful!

What else?? Idea??

Sounds like a brilliant idea :)
Could also have things like best racing experience for any funny tales etc

Bike details would be good - class / engine size, off the shelf / home built, that kind of thing.

that sounds good needs an introduction as well about the racing and the bikes because when i heard it it at cadwell last year he was say in that the 620 bike would have more power than the 618 and same with the 600 and 583 so that needs sorting

i did this last year ... couldn't always find the commentator on race day morning but always left a pack up in the commentators box before the races ... info included all that has been mentioned (but have to admit not all of it everytime) and also last race results with race report if available ... great idea just a shame not done earlier in the season ... it would have been great at castle combe when we were all held on the grid for 10 mins .... would have saved him interviewing you on the grid !!
good luck !
