Another thing is letter size. Size: Actual size in inches of a letter/number. Impact: The distance where a letter/number is most readable. Maximum: The farthest distance a person can read a letter/number. Size - Impact - Maximum 2 in. - 20 ft. - 70 ft. 3 in. - 30 ft. - 100 ft. 4 in. - 40 ft. - 140 ft. 5 in. - 50 ft. - 175 ft. 6 in. - 60 ft. - 200 ft. These distances vary depending on color combinations and vision. If you mix in a couple of outline colors, a shadow color, letter color and then background color... Forget about these measurements. If it's on your racecar, nobody is reading it unless there standing right next to it. |

Re: Car Colors
I score MSCS races and I would love a large number on the nose and tail tank. It would also be sweet if guys using a letter would put one on that I could see from the booth A 3 inch letter at 100 mph is a real ***** to see Thanks for letting me vent

Re: Car Colors
Those nameplates above the driver's head,are hard to read on some cars because people don't know how to use contrasting colors..Some of the Mods and SLM are notorious for being hard to read!!!!...Use the "KISS" theory,unless your Sponsors want a specific combination..My .02...;)

Re: Car Colors
This thread fits in nicely with one of my pet peeves. For non-wing racing to grow its fan base it needs to find more than the non-wing thing to set it apart: 1. As stated earlier, paint schemes which set cars apart are great for the newbie 2. we need to find ways to once again make the view of the driver "at work" easier for the spectator, especially the newbies. I understand the need for the right side cover, but it certainly would be nice to be able to once again watch them wrasslin' these things around!
