CHIP TIMING / LOW VOLTAGE CHIPS

Many riders purchased Active Transponder Chips many, many years ago.  Chips over 5 years are out of warranty from Race Results, but still may have enough battery life to use for accurate timing.  For the 2024, season we purchased 100 new chips that are available for sale.  We can test your chip at each event by simply having you cross the start/finish line so we can read the current voltage before the event.  Chips below 2.3 volts will not be accurate, and you will be required to replace it or use a rental chip.  New chips with a 5-year warranty are $85 and can be purchased online or in-person.  Chip rentals are $5.  To learn more about how chips work and how to properly store your chip please click here:  EVERYTHING I EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT ACTIVE CHIPS

The race is located on the North side of Tradewinds Park.  The park will be closed to vehicle traffic.  Please enter the South Side of Tradewinds Park (South of Sample Road) and head East to the service road which will take you under the Florida Turnpike and North to the Start/Finish line.  Please park on the South Side of the cones and do not park near the Start/Finish line.
