I'm looking to buy a transponder instead of renting one at every event.

Does anybody know were I can get a good deal on one?

 

What kind should I get? and how much do they usually run?

The transponders used by NASA are made by AMB. Go to http://www.ioportracing.com and click on "for the car". Then click on "timing equipment". Then click on "AMB Transponders".

 

There are two types: one you take in and out of the car and you recharge it between use. It costs $375. Code AMB 10006. The other type is permanently installed in the car and you don't have to recharge it. It costs $340. Code AMB 1772.

 

Happy Motoring.

You can get it here:

Be sure to get the wired unit and make sure it has power when the ignition is powered. It would suck to not be scored for a race because your wireless unit was dead or your wired unit wasnt turned on.

Your not going to find too many "deals" on a transponder. The dealer margins are pretty short on those. In addition to the dealers mentioned, I'll also throw in pegasusracingproducts.com.

This year at Cali Speedway they had a great deal, $275, too bad I didn't have the money then.
