Timing will be with AMB RC3 equipment, drivers must provide a personal transponder.

It is the driver’s responsibility to securely fit the transponder to their car before the start of any race.( if it falls off during the race then your laps will not be manually counted.
The driver is responsible for ensuring that the transponder functions with adequate signal strength. If the transponder malfunctions, competitors may have their laps recorded manually providing that:-
- The transponder starts the race clock for the heat or final.
- The Race Director is satisfied that the car was circulating during any missed laps. If the transponder does not record a finishing time, then the Race Director may award final lap(s) based on any recorded information available. This procedure will only be adopted once for each competitor in any individual event.
