So you have to pay another £30 to reserve your race number with hottrax. With DD it was free but first come first served with numbers + an unwrtten rule that you can carry your number on each year.
Can I take my DD #6 to 1C for free ?

As we race in our own series, why on earth should we not keep our numbers??? :devil:

Absolutely agree Phil, thats why I'm checking as we are with Hottrax now not New Era, but I guess I'm more talking about 1C as I want to take my #6 to it.

You are correct and the DSC administers race numbers not Hottrax.

Sorry Neal
I forgot after your change of number from 2010 to 2011, as I started maintaining the list last year I didn't look back that far only looking at my 2011 list where you are #74 and the 2012 list that I have started and couldn't recall #77 having been used for a while.

Still as it wasn't used in 2011 Simon can have it for 2012

I would love to run number 1 in the C class and buy a new 620 and run number 70 in DD again. The way things are looking though (just doing rough sums) I will be lucky to do any racing next year. :(
Have to settle for watching instead.

Now where's those magic beans. ;)

Geoff Spencer (sort of) did. If you can call the first Round only a defence (1st and 2nd), but then he dissapeared for the rest of the year to return again in 2007, and was in first after the first 3 rounds, only to dissappear again!

That would be 1st and 1st, Winning the 1st race by 4 seconds and passing a few Hornets that were given a head start along the way, then Geoff won the second race by 12 seconds, both times from the Old Man Ian Leah in 2nd


to return again in 2007, and was in first after the first 3 rounds, only to dissappear again!

He went off to race a KTM which decided it didn't like him and beat him up at Snetterton

so as I said; no one has attempted to regain it then ;) never mind actually retained it.....

going to be a very competitive year I reckon. 8 winners in class B, 3 (?) in class A. How much will the field get mixed up???

Ahhh, well being pedantic, no-one said anything about a successful defence ;) .... joking aside, he is the only one that returned to Class A after winning it.

As a newbie to racing all of this talk about multiple winners is not helping the nerves and there's still 6 months to go to my debut. As thread started on race numbers can I have a cheeky shout for 42?

I am sure that 42 being the answer to life the universe and everything was used last year !

Dont worry about the number of people who have won before, theres a lot of people who have not won as well

Check with Skids for your number

To check if a number was used last year, go to Desmodue.co.uk and check the class A/B tables for 2011. If the number you want wasn't used, pm Skids.

Number 51 will be free as i will be racing with number 9 next year.

Steve Hands was racing in class A with number 42 last year.

Just need a bike now! :)
