I'd like to finally stop using blue painters tape to display my number, anyone have any suggestions on where to get magnetic numbers?

Same here. I'd like to know what everyone is using for numbers that's removable, but won't fly off at the track. I always thought it was crazy that people by numbers that don't stay on, so they have to use painters tape anyways...

another option is removable vinyl numbers. i got mine from http://www.izoomgraphics.com/. the vinyl is very thick and durable, and it's relatively cheap. they also sell magnetic numbers.

how does removable vinyl work? do you use some kind of weak glue to make it stick?

no, the vinyl already has adhesive on it. because it's so thick, you can peel it off and put it back on the wax paper that it comes with until the next event. it won't really lose adhesion as long as you keep the window clean before applying. since i peel it off after every event, i put it on window instead of metal panels to avoid scratched.
