Thanks! Don't worry, I won't. I left the meatballs blank intentionally so I can add whatever number I'm assigned by our local club for that particular race day.

Yessir, I did! I originally was talking about this with Tommy R who sent me a link to one of his crawler sources who makes some VERY nice, scale plates. They put them on aluminum, even so you can crinkle them to make them look even more scale. Too nice for my blood. Then Bill Delong started printing off his own and offered to make decals for local racers. He referred me to this site: http://acme.com/licensemaker/

But since the ACME generator didn't have the new (2012) Texas plates I ended up creating my own. I printed them to scale (1.2" x 0.6"). I didn't want just a sticker, so I mounted them up on some Lexan, cut them out and voila! Technically they're incorrect as there's supposed to be a Texas State shape in the middle, but oh well.
