I have spoken to MRT.
This is what they say..... "We have been unable to assess either the RC4 'Hybrid' or the full RC4 system updates for compatibility due to having not been in a position to carry out tests before now. Until an understanding of exactly what has changed and how it's not possible to comment further or to confirm anything either way. We will be doing everything we can after we've found out what's going on to enable you to continue in future." |

Thanks Pip!
So does any club who have or 'will' upgrade care to help out here, or is that "against" the unwritten rules here, be it ultimately for the benefit of its racers....? |

Before anyone says I'm supporting BBK/Mylaps because I've managed to setup a cheaper deal for members please don't as this is not true at all. I did try, but the price was nonnegotiable! Silverstone club have setup a deal for trade in off our own back as we want to support and feel for 'the little guy'. I don't know you Upgrade and I'm sure you're lovely. I'm just giving my opinion and don't want a row about it. Sorry if I've discussed two threads in one post, but it was easier. Matt

Hi Matt,
No worries, and no argument here, it was an open question, which perhaps I already knew the answer to! (wink wink)... I didn't realise it was "bad" to let people know my opinion! I don't think I said that most clubs didn't care about their racers, I merely said that I thought clubs were there to suppport their racers -in response to a comment made about "hating" mrt's Like I said on the other thread, I don't do or like the whole cloak and dagger approach...Its actually nice to hear someone (else?) come out and talk honestly (imho) about the costs of it all... I agree there is strength in numbers to look after ALL the racers and maybe thats a bit of why I've banged on about it a bit, do we did we really need to do this so soon? Could we have waited a bit? I do feel bbk/mylaps have done this very agressively and not for the best interests of the customers.. which catches in my throat, but thats just me repeating myself... oh and me lovely... nah, you must have me mistaken with someone else, just look at what I've been writing recently!!!! |

I do understand your pain, I promise. From a purely selfish point of view I'm not pleased because I only own MRT's. With a wife, 2 kids under 3 and an RC addiction this is not good news. I will have to go without another couple of luxuries for a while. Silverstone have made the early move, selfishly. We have very early regional and our winter series will be finished by the time we make the change. We will have a decent amount of handouts available for the racer who wants to race and hasn't upgraded as everyone through the door is a priority, ability regardless! I wouldn't recommend any other club upgrade until they are ready. Everyone's circumstances are completely different. I hope to meet you at this years regional series. Thanks, Matt

The problem is with the new RC4 Purcys, if clubs do not upgrade and someone turns up with a Purcy how do you count his or her laps?
MRT have copied AMB's/Mylaps product, why shouldn't they protect it? Mylaps freezing out MRT's has been on the cards for a good couple of years now. I have a 1st gen AMB, so I'm ok but this won't stop me from getting a new Harry or Purcy on the exchange. It's the clubs with rc2 and old rc3 decoders I feel for. |

As soon as the RC4 system started becoming available one would have thought they'd have figured out a way to get their hands on one of the first ones.... one way or another.... if for no other reason than to keep their relevance in the hobby and to keep a lot of customers from getting pissed off. |
