This sort of thing can stop me from racing for a month. We all already know the cost of racing is huge anyway without having to replace things that work fine.
I have had no problems since MRT sold me two clones for the price of one. They have never skipped a beat and fit in the car easily and also look okay.
I found out last night that my new region will be changing so if I want to compete at the regionals down here I will need to upgrade and buy the new transponders. It is infuriating for me so much so I was just put off going racing today as planned to race at the TORCH winter series as I thought I cant afford the tyres to race if Im going to need to buy these new transponders.
Its times like this I did wish I was still up north and I take my hat off to my old club YORCC for them sticking up for what I think is right. I think this whole situation sticks!
Before anyone says its progress etc I cant honestly remember the last time I saw a problem with missed laps. I see that it works fine so why change? It seems to be like clubs are being bullied into this and brainwashed into thinking it is actually better for us all.

Sell the MRT's on ebay, then buy AMB then your future proof !!
