The track had to buy 10-20 house transponders at once for our convenience, not because they owed it to us. House transponders cost $200 each.
I understand, and I am grateful. I am in a position right now where I am able to be in all of those hobbies. My car audio has not changed at all and probably won't. I buy and sell bikes but never lose money on them. I just got back into RC after being stupid and selling my stuff. I cannot afford a personal right now. I understand the house transponders are expensive.... I am very grateful that they are there. Writing that $10,000+ check each semester to U of I doesn't leave a whole lot extra. $5 becomes a lot after a while..... Believe me, I wish I could buy one right now. I can't. If I shouldn't be allowed to race because of it then that's fine. I think a deposit is acceptable.
