<p>Road I.D. provides race numbers and a few give aways for the cost of shipping. I've used them for the four years I've put on the Ithaca GP with absolutely no problems.</p>

<p>Post where you get items for your races.</p>
<p>I posted earlier that Menards usually puts the step-in plastic posts on sale in the spring. I start looking in March. They came up about 3 weeks ago for .99c ea.

<p>Some places may be regional, but i believe Menards and probably others will take orders on the web or phone and ship them.</p>
<p>i'll post if either item goes up on sale again.</p>
