It is definitely a requirement of racing, but it's over priced and one of mine just died.
Look up MRT transponders, they're half the price and smaller. They can even clone your AMB number if you want the same ID for all of your different car's transponders.
Great Product! A must have for any racer. Plug it in, and forget about it. I can't think of a more important electronic to have.
I have one of these in all my vehicles. When you run three classes having one less thing to worry about is worth the $$. Since I installed these I have never been missed at the timing loop due to a dead transponder battery or having it ripped off the car in a pileup!
AMB has a monopoly!
These things are the #1 thing a racer should have, but man! they're expensive!
No more searching for your transponder because some guy who can't read took the wrong one....priceless
Must have if you are racing Nuff Said..................................................
JUST MAKES LIFE EASIER!!! MORE TIME TO FIX WHAT BROKE ON YOU CAR IN THE ROUND BEFORE WITH OUT WORRYING, DID I HAND IN MY TRANSPONDER, I NEED A TRANSPONDER!!! -//- saves a lot of trouble! one less thing to think of! love it - Dont like the price thou!
The AMB rc makes rc raceing so much more enjoyable !
Received my first AMB rc transponder , and its so easy to install , plug it in a empty slot in the receiver for power , add a piece of double side sticky square to hold the transponder to the frame/floor , and go raceing .
Compared to useing the track / clubs transponder , the personal AMB rc transponder makes a big difference in your frame of mind , and enjoyment , when they call your heat or main to the track , just turn your car on , the transponder power light comes on , and you are ready to race .
Useing the track / club transponder wasn't always easy , you had to wait till someone turned in the one you need for your race , from the previous racer , and then the battery is to low to work , quick get another one , or they gave you the wrong one and you have to return it and get another one , and so on and on . Usually all this occurs as everyone is called to the line to race , and you don't even have one yet to install on your truck . Unsettleing to your mind just before you race .
Yesterday was my first race day with my own transponder , and it was Fantastic , I actually finished higher than I have all year in the 3 heats and the main , it was so relaxing , to just go to the line when called , and just turn the truck on and race .
Now I have to have one for eack truck and car .
Which work makes this transponder??????????????????/
Makes life much easer at the track! It's well worth the investment and will save you the hassle of rental transponders.....
Great product for 95$, too bad they just jacked up the price.
I have one for all my cars and it makes everything alot easier
95 X 30,000 = $2.85 million.
@#$%!!
but then again these things are the shizzle.
Did anybody else do the math on that? 94.99 x 30,000.....talk about a monopoly.... But I remember when transponders were $60 bucks.... But yes they make your race day alot easier....Could not race without it!!! Great investment if you race alot....some big races require them...
I think it's a very good transponder and I know you've heared it over and over again all you do is strap it in and forget about it! It's well worth the money!
Love it! Have one in my buggy & gas truck. I'm going to get one for my truggy too. Makes life so much easier not having to worry about a house transponder.
Never worry about finding the track loaner unit again. Never worry about the loaner going dead in the middle of a race. Mount the unit in the truck and forget about it. You're racing!
Works perfectly! 30,000 racers can't be wrong. Get yours today!
This personal transponder is around 14 grams lighter than a battery-powered transponder and you don't have to worry about forgetting to mount or bring it back anymore.
I used small zip-ties to mount it, as they're lighter than screws and easier to use and remove.
