Again..... Why add additional tasks to an already stressfull situation??

If you want to know who is in any particular car, walk up to Race Admin and ask Nicola (or whoever else is on duty at the time!)
Some days, it's REALLY difficult being me!

Drivers put their name or initials on the side of their helmets (as they do at Spa) - anybody in the commentary box can then tell who is in the car (might need a pair of binoculars!?)  :-\

most gt cars use driver dedicated transponder cards but even they get confused should drop in a receiver on the door or rocker panel jon davis

Tony Daff at TSL has advised that after much head scratching, they have decided that there is no effective, low-cost, way to have Driver-In info on the timing screens.

So, it looks like it will be left to the ingenuity of teams to work out some ways to do it which can be tested in the 2010 race. The most promising seems to be either big initials or code letters on the driver's helmets.

I also have recently learnt that our long-time lead commentator, Alan Hyde, cannot be at the 24hr this year, as he's otherwise engaged on BTCC duty. We are consulting with Debs at Snet on a replacement.
