[QUOTE="fabianyee, post: 456309, member: 6"] Here are some of my feedback from the Raub drive: 1) Lead car should be ZERO car not Car #1. And sweeper car should be either '00' or 'XX' to differentiate it from other car numbers. 2) there is no designated marshall cars. Marshall cars should be marked with 'MARSHALL' stickers or 'M1', 'M2', 'M3' etc... So that the group knows who are the designated marshall cars. One of marshall's function is stop traffic, if applicable, to allow the whole convoy to pass thru safely. And also to wait up at junctions to let the cars at the back knows where to turn so that they don't missed the junction... I have been on a long drive with the Audi boys and their marshalling is very good. They rempit more crazy than we do, 300+hp A4 quattro and 400hp S3, and an ex audi owner with a 400hp Scooby... distance between 1st car and last car can be a full 2km apart. But they have a good system to ensure no one gets lost.. Powerful Stickered Marshall cars will take turn to station at junctions where the convoy needs to turn off. Here's a very comprehensive convoy guide from kiaforte forum, dun play play. A bit overkill with so many designations but there's definitely something we can learn from.
