PLAN THE WHOLE CAR

Every position.
Accounted for.

Measure a clear area at each location before settling on a layout. A door handle, body crease, trim strip, or small front/rear area can change the available footprint.

Position reference: 2026 Solo Rules · §3.7. For magnetic placement limitations, read Magnum’s installation guidance.

One active identity at a time.

A co-driver digit or Ladies-class L still has to meet the applicable character rules. Keep only the identification for the driver currently competing visible. For national events, check the required SCCA and sponsor decals separately.

Before a production proof

  • Check your registered number and any class or run-group identifier.
  • Confirm current event requirements and required official decals.
  • Measure clear width and height on the actual car.
  • Record the finish and check the selected attachment material.

We check the actual characters, stroke widths, positions and supplied fit measurements on the production proof. The on-screen car illustration does not complete those checks.

A few useful answers.

Can a compact panel use smaller characters?

A smaller outside footprint does not relax the national minimum character dimensions. If your usable body-panel area is too small, change the layout or ask the organizer about an appropriate solution before producing the kit. Official reference ↗

Can a magnetic kit work on every car?

No. It needs a suitable magnetic surface and full contact; aluminum, fiberglass, and carbon-fiber panels are not suitable magnetic substrates. Check the actual mounting area and finish. Magnum care and application guidance · Our material guide.

Does this include a guarantee of event compliance?

Our Race Ready service checks number-graphics requirements and provides a correction promise for our documented work. The organizer retains final approval; graphics do not certify vehicle classification, equipment or technical inspection. See our service terms.
