NOTE: Required for all national classes
| METHODS OF PAYMENT |
- CASH (of course!)
- Credit cards (Visa and MasterCard only) are accepted with a $10 transaction fee.
| RENTAL (required for ATVA Rounds 1 and 2) |
FEE: $25 plus $125 refundable deposit required.
RENTAL INCLUDES: One (1) mounting bracket that must be returned with the rental. If bracket is not returned with the transponder or is damaged the racer will only receive $115 of the deposit back.
RENTAL CHARGE: The rented transponder will have enough charge to last the entire race weekend in which you rented it from, however, because it is a rechargeable transponder it will not hold the charge to the next race.
| PURCHASE (not for sale until April 18, see below) |
PRICE: When available for purchase at Round 3, the transponder will be $150 and includes one (1) mounting bracket, charger for home and car. Additional brackets available for $6 each.
IMPORTANT: Unfortunately due to the changes needed by the FCC to allow these new transponders to enter the United States they were delayed too long in order to be packaged and shipped in time. For this reason, eScore cannot have transponders available for sale any sooner than Round 3 to be sure there are enough for all events and riders to that point. There is a slight chance they could be available for Round 2 but they will not know until they get closer to that time.
CREDIT TOWARDS PURCHASE?: Unfortunately due to the incredible investment incurred by both eScore and Trackside Software to continue making it possible for motocross nationwide to continue having transponder scoring, a credit towards the purchase price of a Transponder will not be possible.
| TRANSPONDER DETAILS |
Mounting of the new transponder.
FULLY CHARGED: The transponder will have a green light that will flash to show it has a good charge.
WEAK BATTERY: In the event that the light went red (showing a weak battery) eScore will swap for a fresh transponder although we anticipate this being a very rare occurrence.
| NEW FEATURES |
This transponder is much stronger than last year's model due to the larger stronger rechargeable battery. The transponder will read much stronger which will help prevent transponders from missing their trip for any reason. The new transponder has a 3-year manufacturer's warranty and is expected to last for 8-10 years. Due to the initial investment that both eScore has had to make into the purchase of these new transponders for motocross nationwide, we anticipate these transponders will not need replaced for many years to come.
