It's not the tracks fault... My Laps started selling cheaper transponders ( RC4 ) Racers start showing up with them and the rc4's don't work on the old Ilaps 2 system or in the My laps 3 system ("I'm not going to rent a transponder, and I'm not coming back till my new transponder works here" ) So, owners have to upgrade to the new my laps 4 system... The new RC4 system works for ALL the red house rechargeable transponders and newer ( all Ilaps and My Laps Transponders ) The tracks were offered a chance to upgrade their old timing system to the new RC4 for $350 So, they had to upgrade to the new system. (from a business perspective ) Or risk doing the upgrade later at a cost of $3500 to $4000 dollars.... THAT is the difference between keeping the doors open, and closing the track for some places... Complaining about your ( CLONED ) transponder not working is your own fault... The $20 bucks you saved for buying a "compatible" transponder, wasn't much of a savings ...
