MyLaps / AMB Transponder Subscription

[Fbody383]

So the timing guy thinks I'm going to be "ok" with having to have a subscription to use the hardware I bought?

I guess you'll know me... I'm the car gridded in the back because I don't have a time.

Hey it's not all bad, they will give us credit for our old one��

Can someone explain what all of this means? I'm confused. So now a transponder requires a 5 year subscription? Why would you want that? Maybe that's why old ones sell for $400 on ebay.

OG Racing told me the AMB TranX262 is no longer available and My Laps is changing to subscription based transponders. The older model 262 is considered to be a lifetime subscription with a non-transferable serial number for a single user "at this time".

A lot of software companies are doing the same thing. AutoCad went subscription only this year.

Hopefully my 10-year old transponder doesn't die soon...
