Title: What is the status for revision of P.23 in the new 1966 Registry?
Post by: NC TRACKRAT on October 29, 2019, 05:41:48 PM
It's been months since the release of the new 1966 Registry and not a peep from HQ about plans to correct this mistake.   I've suggested that the corrected page be posted so that each recipient can print out and insert their own copy...a speedy and cost effective solution...but, much to my chagrin, I've heard nothing.  What's the plan? Hello?!

What is the extent of the problem? Is it something one could just add a note to their own copy? Mine all have updates written in them.

Page 23 is all screwed up.  Impossible to decipher the grid codes of any car.

Stan, Thanks for once again bringing this to everyone's attention. I too was very disappointed when I found the errors on page 23. Proof reading should have picked up the errors prior to release. Those folks who aren't as knowledgeable as we are, might just assume the information regarding color codes is correct. I think a correction is in order. I know my Hertz car was originally painted Raven Black, a color not even listed there. Gulfstream Aqua, Grabber Orange, Gray?

Ops, forgot to mention the poor quality of the binding on the book itself. I cringe each time I open it as I hear the binding coming loose.

While we wait, I suggest that those who have a copy of the 4th Edition 1965-1966-1967 Registery, go to page 278 and use that to decipher the grid.  I'd scan and post but don't want to be accused of misusing copyrighted material.  ::)

Interestingly, the font size in my copy changes (gets larger) beginning with page 343 and on.
