[dez250]

one thing i can say is that team numbers from a team in the past that may have dropped out are not reused, so if that team comes back they can use their old number(like team 350 something). Also when a potnetial company (like delphi) wants to sponsor say 10 teams a group of 10 numbers will be given out consectuativly to that sponsor with the number before and the number after that group not used (i think) for the company to kinda like stand out. also i know some teams have choos to use a higher number then they would have normally at the sponsors or teams request, i know of at least one case for that this past year.
