Hi, I was wondering if you guys know where to get some nice magnetic numbers for autocross. I've been using silly masking tape for my numbers and class. THANKS

 

I went to a craft shop and bought a sheet of white magnetic material (my car was black). I then went home and booted the PC and got into Wordpad and made the largest bold number (by adjusting the font) that would fit on a page and printed this out. Using scissors, I cut the number out of the paper. I then traced the number onto the magnetic material and used a sharp pair of scissors to cut out the number from the magnetic material. For the class designations, I used a font size that was half the size. They look good and have been tested to +130mph.

 

go to home depot or lowes and get the magnetic sheets they sell to cover vents. they cut with a scissors, and were very inexpensive.

I use 86 and my wife uses 99. we made six numbers using three sheets.

we used the round plastic pint containers take out soup came in as a template. works for 2,3,5,6,8,9.

 

I bought mine from ProTape

Nice people, nice letters and numbers

 

I did the same. If your craft store doesn't have what you need try mcmaster carr. They sell all kinds of magnetic vinyl for dirt cheap. www.mcmaster.com

 

Another vote for Pro-tape. I race with Larry the owner, and you will not find a nicer guy.
