I just cant seem to google the right thing.

What I want is a board, and magnetic strips that I can write top speeds on (that are achieved down the drive) and slap them on the board, Top Gear style.

Currently they are on the phone notes, but since lockdown started, we have been doing a lot of speed runs smile and I would like the above.

Anyone know where I can get something like that, or what words I need to google?

Any magnetic memo board will do - Ikea, Amazon, etc...

And you can then buy either precut or sheets of magnetic strips??

Or am I missing something??

Fridge. Then you can have a cold celebratory beer when you beat the record.

Are there any metal fabricators near you? All you need is a sheet of galvanised steel bending the right way so it's free standing.

You can use Ferro sheet and then magnetic sheet

Or just ask a local sign makers if they can help.

Not time, poster meant "nice to see you" and Lord March comment was due to recording speeds on your drive...I.e. festival of speed at Goodwood. HTH
