Does anyone know about the placement of where a transponder goes on a car.... Does the FIA state it has tobe on the front of a car...? Also is it 80`s technology they use.... or a more moden thing...? |

transponder onto the roll cage, just behind my left ear. This was two
weeks ago so would probably be fairly representative.

seems that everyone put it as far forward as possible. At the forward
edge of the chassis on most formula and sports cars.

Doc Can't speak for everyone, nor do the rules specify, but in SCCA, it seems that everyone put it as far forward as possible. At the forward edge of the chassis on most formula and sports cars. The local karters put it in a sidepod about mid-chassis. I must admit that if I were doing it I'd put it as far forward as the rules allowed. Mind you it's an expensive item for a karter and I suppose for them the risk of crash damage is a factor. |
are you running your own kart team now? That's the gist of what I've got
from what you've posted...
drop me an email at matty<removethisbithere>pope@<spam.stopperhopefull y>
hotmail.com. Even if this does get harvested, it's already loaded with
spam, so I'd hardly notice the difference. Did you figure out the email
address?

If we do trade e-mails I'd likely give you an address that tosses out everything except those that I specifically allow so I'd have to plug an address in for you before you sent a thing. Frankly I am not fussy about hotmail harvesting my addresses. |
not... pope dot matthew at <spamblocker> bigpond dot <more blocking spam>
com.
Figure that one out? he he...
