scot,
it is entirely possible that most of the offenders are not on this list. in
fact, should we advertise the existence of this list at events? i forget
how i found it.
when i did tech today i also checked the numbers and talked to a guy in the
vette with white numbers on a silver car. he said he would outline them for
next time.
BTW, i have some beautiful magnetic numbers, #74 or #47 (or 4 or 7) in a
gold flecked super dark brown color. anyone want to borrow them?
