Hey Everyone,
Doing a timed event and looking for a good mounting location for my transponder. It looks like most people mount it in the from passenger wheel well. I thing on George's Chump car we didn't mount it there. (Can't remember where though)
Any track proven mounting locations out there?
Thanks as always.

I looked at that spot, but on the passenger side of the car.
Mine is the wireless kind so I guess I could put it just about anywhere. It would be nice to reach it without removing the tire though.

True, with rechargeables you have more positioning flexibility but need ease of access. If it won't be permanently installed you could simply zip-tie it to the license plate frame or just about anywhere secure. Just remember it needs to have line-of-sight to the ground and also not be somewhere that gets super hot or pummeled by debris.

Check the timing sheets right away after the first session to confirm it's working right.

Have fun and keep the shiny side up!
