Description My son was registered in the software with Tx 4577740 and timed with this transponder on previous races. However this is a car_ID tranponder (#3) and the club installed the new version of your software last week in which you implemented car_id. On the first session last weekend the system did not record my sons laps, as the system was detecting 4577740-3 while he was registered with 4577740-0. We fixed it for the following sessions, by adding the correct car_id.

Current situation is that a racer who now buys and uses an extra car_id transponder is "punished" even though his base number is known in your system.

The idea behind car_id is that all transponders with same base number belong to the same person. So in case you see a number on the track with a base number that is assigned to a racer, I think you should use that transponder for that racer. Only in case of 2 car_id transponders with same base number on the track, should the operator be informed and asked which car_id should go to which racer.
