Bring your helmet/transponder to sign up from now on!!!!

Something new at scoring for this year. There is a desktop reader that reads your transponder and pulls your entry up onto the screen and all the scoring queens have to do is verify all data is correct and hit enter. The fact that it pulls up the correct rider also means it must be working. Pretty slick huh? Yes I did say Queens? If you dont treat them that way your day will simply not be as good!
All riders need to have a helmet number on the right side chin of their helmet. We need this for back up sheets. These are free so just ask for one at sign up if you dont have one yet. This needs to be done right when you are signing up as it is big pain to do it after.
Having your helmet also helps to make sure the people getting new transponders are getting them on right.
Even though you really dont need to any more, you can check your transponder by walking through after you sign up.
Still wont hurt to come through on practice and check it while on your bike just in case.
If you see someone headed to sign up without their helmet, let them know about this new procedure. I think MO and Hillbilly guys already know this drill.
Get those season numbers on your bike as soon as you can and in the meantime, make sure all old number are covered over. It is BEST to put the temp numbers on AFTER practice. Dont forget, temp numbers cost $5 now. They are now new techology, waterproof, and will last several races if you just want to keep running them.
The craziness at Collins will all be behind us once everyone who attended Collins checks their transponders just to be sure all is well.
