As our ACU trainer said - "I wouldn't recommend guessing it."

blood group is not really an issue, if you are chucking blood out by the bucket load they will just pump the most common into you and that will do the job. they will give you a test in situ to determine your exact match anyway. you may be a certain group but there are still varying degrees of match within it.

I asked my doctor for my blood group and he said they will not pump blood into you without a test it is too dangerous!! plasma is what they would put into you if needed whilst a type test was carried out and he pointed out that no circuit ambulance would keep anything other than plasma.

Ordered on Tuesday night, received today.
Cheap and quick, why asking for more.
Thanks NBs996 for this very good link.

I'd've thought they'd be fine... they're asking for no sharp corners that might dig into ya. The oval ones should be ok with the rubber silencers.

You do make a good point tho Rally - I'll take mine up to cadwell at the end of the month and ask one of the scrutineers.
