neil.cavanagh Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 As a novice to this dual drive thingy... how are people planning on managing their numbers at MIRA? What with the 2nd drivers being pre-fixed with an 8 rather than 7... so no easy sticking on a bit of tape to turn a 1 into a 7.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 You can have 8132 and then cover the 8 or 1 with the masking tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Team Shaun_E Posted June 12, 2008 Support Team Share Posted June 12, 2008 As Lynda says - just have to cross one or other of the 8 and 1 out. Timekeepers seem OK with this kind of thing here.

Mrs Kipper Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Just one of the pleasures of dual drives 😬 Kipper Fun is not a straight line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bl0498 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Neil, With my CofC hat on please can you do the crossing out a bit better than in Shaun's picture! Much better than using a bit of black tape to try to strike out the number is using white tape or white tape and white paper to completely cover the deleted number. Some timekeepers do get very annoyed with drivers not bothering to do this properly! The key things are of course that you change the numbers between the runs (I have seen one number on one side etc....) which can of course cause enormous confusion trying to work out for the results...... and run the dual driver car in the right place - normally 10 cars before the main driver and at MIRA when the dual driver has finished there run they come up alongside the main car queue on RHS and change over near the end of the paddock ready to cut in at the appropriate place. Enjoy yourselves, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
