This I-LAP system is great for club racing ,also great for bigger events.
Don't let the racers talk you into buying the AMB because they already have the AMB transponder.First the die hard racer will buy the I-LAP transponder no matter if the have the AMB or not.Just have a track set of transponders available for the racers who don't buy them.
Most racer don't know how much a lap counter cost ,so its easy for them to say just get the AMB.If they really knew how much it can cost for a complete AMB system they would look into the I-LAP.
This helps to keep the cost down for the track or club owner ,and in return helps keep entry fee down.
For us it was spend $700us for the I-LAP or $2500+us for the AMB,to get the same end result reliable and accurate lap counting .The I-LAP system does both at a much lower cost.
The I-LAP transponder works thru some painted bodies but clear spot works better,or even a small hole in the body over the tranponder works better.They still will work if they get mud on them or fuel.

Keep in mind that AMB has had a 20+ year monoply on the lap counter business,so it will take time for something new get out there for more people to use and trust .The I-LAP system is that other choice.
