Classes (people actually racing against each other) are grouped into run groups that race on the track at the same time, because the fewer groups of cars, the more time in a weekend each group will get. Within a run group, if you race a certain number of times in a year, you can apply for a permanent number, one which you will get assigned in any race that you run, while it is “your” number. If you don’t have a permanent number, each race you ask for your top three choices of numbers, and the office will assign you a number based on what numbers are available for that weekend in that run group. Since people tend to ask for the number they last put on their car numbers tend to stay pretty consistent through the year. > > On 2/29/2020 11:45:02, Ralf R Radermacher wrote: >> Am 29.02.20 um 16:41 schrieb ann sanfedele: >>> like the photo, sorry the car owner felt the need to shout what year it >>> was using that silver paint. >> The year is not even correct. >> This is a rather late Beetle, definitely not from 61.

Maybe "61" is his race-car number. How are those numbers assigned anyway?

Agree. Also the bumpers. I had '60 & '63 beetles long ago.

Hi Ralf, >The year is not even correct. >This is a rather late Beetle, definitely not from 61. Note the curved >windscreen which was introduced in 1972 and the big tail lights (1973). You are right. Real sixties' models are very rarely seen here these days. Most of those in fairly routine use are those of early seventies. They were made in Brasil, if my memory serves me well.
