I thought I would post this up to see what most people think. I think we need transponders to score next year race at BC. The only drawback is that will cost more money to race. There are two major benefits to transponders. 1) The scoring will not be jacked up. 2) Everyone will be able to see the laptimes, and how they compare to other classes, and it also gives you your best lap of each moto. So you can see if you run your fastest lap first, middle, or last. Which i think that is worth the rental fee right there.
Now with that said, for those who have never raced with transponders, there is a deposit to cover the cost of each one, its typically $100, and you can use a debit or credit card, once you return it to the transponder truck, you get $75 back. So its a $25 rental. That is what they have done at the ATV nationals for the last several years now. I think i can negotiate that down a little bit, the rental fee that is.
My question is will the cost of transponders stop you from racing BC? If it does, then what is a fair price in your opinion?
