Great job Andy, thanks! No doubt it will come in handy in the early hours of Sunday morning when my mind won't be at its sharpest

Wow thanks Andy! Top job! I'm really becoming a fan of your guides.
By the way, I don't know whether you knew or not, but the two cars of each team are distinguishable by the colour of the 't-cam' on top of the airbox. The first numbered drivers (Raikkonen, Heidfeld, Alonso, etc) have a red flash on top, whilst the 2nd numbered drivers (Massa, Kubica, Piquet etc) have a yellow flash. Just an idea but maybe this could be incorporated into the guide somehow, as an additional way of identifying the drivers. Just throwing an idea into the pot, not criticising! Looking forward to seeing the others when they're done, we appreciate your efforts. |

We were originally going to do this, but the teams hadn't used this in testing, so it was hard to predict. not quite sure how I'm going to impliment this now though.
Will be an updated guide for Malaysia with updated liveries for SuperAguri, Force India and some smaller changes across other teams. |

IIRC, that 't-cam' color difference is actually mandatory...

Hi everyone!
The Spotters Guide has been updated and Version 2, ready for Malaysia, is now on-line at http://www.spotterguides.com/ A few livery changes (Force India, Ferrari, Super Aguri, Williams). I've also added a colour key around the number panels to signify the Camera T-Bar colour for drivers 1 and 2. Future changes to the guide will occur when a) significant livery changes, b) driver change or c) team name change happen. BTCC Spotters Guide should be online mid-late next week, ready for round 1, with the ALMS following week. EDIT:Just to make it more noticeable ! Last edited by Bononi; 18 Mar 2008 at 23:45. |

You have caught most of it....
SA was a full livery change, so Pioneer disappeared as well. Lenovo added to Nakajima's helmet White Bridgestone badge on sidepod of Williams Eithad on Ferrari barge board (very small ) Corrected visor strip on Sutil. Updated RLM logo and colour bands around number panels. |

I'm probably being dumb here, but the V2 PDF I downloaded won't let me print it out. The document properties say printing is disabled, in fact security says it is password protected. Using Acrobat 7.0.9.

yes, funny you should say that. We discovered that issue earlier today. My mistake. A new version should be online on the main www.spotterguides.com site Friday, but you can also access it HERE , in the mean time, on one of the other partner sites.
Sorry about that. I'll be the sack Last edited by andy_b; 28 Mar 2008 at 05:29. |

It seems there were still some printing issues with the pdf version of the guide so we've reset the security and the updated guide (still with SA!) is now on the site. Sorry about this.
