CAR NUMBER REQUESTS FOR 2012 BEING ACCEPTED AT THOMPSON
Thompson International Speedway is accepting applications for car number renewals. For ease and convenience, the 2012 registration forms may be accessed from the front page of the Thompson web site (or by clicking here).
As in
previous years, any driver who secured track points with a registered car
number in any of our weekly NASCAR Whelen All-American Series divisions will

As a reminder, this form is also used to generate information for payroll. Therefore, track officials ask that you take your time in completing the form to be sure all information needed is there and is neat and legible. Forms that can’t be read will be returned to the sender.
There is no
charge to competitors to reserve a number. However, if a number is
secured and then not used by June 30, 2012, that number will become available
to another competitor.
Teams are reminded that Thompson will accept requests for one and two digit numbers only. Letters or symbols of any kind will not be accepted as part of the car’s official number.
Race teams are urged to get their numbers secured for next season as soon as possible.

This is especially troublesome for teams who have already had their race cars lettered before the number is registered with the track. By renewing the car’s number now, racers will avoid such problems. Anyone not having a computer or access to the Thompson web site may call the speedway office to have a form sent to them.
