    1. Fit an AMB TranX 260 Transponder in the location approved for the type/class of car.
    2. Provide the unique 7 digit Identification Number of the Transponder being used on the Entry Form for each event

    Any competitor starting a practice, heat or final with an inoperative transponder will not be timed until the defect has been rectified or a replacement transponder has been fitted. Any competitor starting a practice, heat or final using a transponder registered to another competitor will not be timed until the Secretary of the Meeting has been informed of all changes relating to the use of that transponder. Where one car is double entered, each competitor must register on their Entry Form, and use an individual transponder and competition number for each practice, heat and final.
