What do they say about nice paint jobs and track bikes?

Well it's not a 1000 dollar paint job, but for 312 bucks it came out awesome. In case anyone else is pondering how to go about a good cheap paint job... 2 cans of satin-black krylon and 1 pint of Yamaha Deep Purplish Blue Metallic w/clearcoat from Colorrite.com. The blue came out near identical to the oem paint and looks damn good. The black is... well.. black.
forgot to add that the $312 includes the 100 I paid the painter to spray it.

I don't remember ever witnessing a pissing match about paint on here, but yeah, pics or STFU!
...and clearcoat is for sissies, I can paint all your asses into a mirror-finished corner with rattle cans and a week of wet sanding.

Check the rule book about those number plates.

I can't see the number plates from the side shot, won't pass muster.
I can redo the plates to make 'em look like any other r6 at loudon, but speaking of numbers, is there a place near/at the track that I can get some of the red ones? I won't know my number until I do the rookie race so it is kind of hard to plan for that with all the possible numbers.

Close your eyes, look deep in your soul, step outside yourself and let your mind go.
Red electrical tape.
I would contact someone at the LRRS office about approval with regards to those number plates...afterall they have the last say on passing or failing you in tech.
Either way pictured below will work, but with a 3 digit number, you may wanna go the way of #699

If that passes tech then you are golden.
From the 2010 rulebook it doesn't look like it should Nor should the other one. 2009 the smallest it could be was 6 inches.
All machines must have numbers, one on the front and one on bothsides. Numbers must be a minimum of 4" high, be spaced 1/2" apart
and allow 1/2" of background color (White for Novices and Experts and
yellow for Amateurs). Side number plates must be behind the rider on
the machine’s tail section or on the lower fairing on the side of the
machine. They must be visible when the rider is in position on the
machine. If the front fairing is broken by an air intake the number must
be displayed on the scoring side of the intake. (The riders left at
Loudon) There are no exceptions to this rule. Riders should be aware
that these requirements may not be accepted at any other CCS event.
This is the final word I suppose.
5.4 Number display approval shall be at the sole discretion of the Chief Tech
Inspector and/or the chief scorer and shall be required before a machine
is passed through Tech Inspection.
