That's what we have now. The rule expresses lots of intent with very little detail. As a result people interpret it in widely varying ways. So, we are proposing making it very clear. As soon as you

Another option is to just leave it the way it is, and let T&S decide on the spot whether they can read your number enough to give you a time. Personally, I'd rather know up front, with time to fix th

Agreed 100%. And the issue of a strip of tape either covering or representing a number is easily covered by the existing rules. Again, they just need enforcement. I don't remember tech at Nationals
