but Tosh has full right to keep his numbers
I don't want to beat a dead horse, and for the record I like Tosh, so, I'm saying this not to be a dink but so as to not spread misinformation because what you've stated is technically not true.
If someone proposed a motion at the AGM to do the whole black 2 thing for the Intermediate SBK champ and it was voted on and passed, Tosh would have to find a different number. The numbers belong to the club akin to how there are regulations and standards for license plates (and how license plates do not belong to the driver). Would it suck? Yep. Would it seem unfair? Yep. Dick move? Maybe for the person that proposed it lol. Life? Unfortunately, yep.
Also, there's nothing in the rule book that states racers are entitled to their numbers. In that same breath, however, one could make such a proposal at the AGM to protect racers' numbers. So there's both sides of the fence
(edit: Just to be clear, I will not be making any such proposal either as this does not affect me since my numbers will probably be red for the rest of my life lol)
