If in doubt, check with scorekeepers prior to heats. Having 4 numbers that are readable by Scorers is a pre tech requirement. Chrome numbers, red numbers on black or black numbers on red or blue are not permitted. If competitor’s numbers are found not readable by officials, the competitor will be notified and will be required to change them to something that is readable before the problem kart is raced.
