I'd venture to guess there are tens of thousands of them in use for RC racing around the globe as well.

Just go on to mylaps and see all the events.
As with most businesses, the road racing side is hardly a blip on the radar.
Just go to their site and TRY to find a specific event! That is the worst website I have ever tried to use. Given that it is all about data I find it difficult to believe that you can't seem to search for an event name, or even narrow the list to a specific YEAR.

2 pages of discussion and I don't think we're any closer to understanding what the subscription actually gets you and if it's even required for basic operation.
No joke! lol
All I know is that I want nothing to do with their website and a subscription would most surely require use of their website. They need to seriously work on that thing...

I guess the reason is the X2 is not even actually for sale yet. At least I haven't found any resellers that have them.
From what I gather, the flex unit does require 'activation' via a usb to pc before it will send out a signal. I may be wrong on this, but that is how i read their documents. Luckily it looks like the older units do not require any subscriptions and should work with all track hardware.
There is another discussion that revolves around the hardware/software used at the track that records and sends the data to mylaps. My club apparently doesn't utilize mylaps so either way I should be ok. I have asked if they can test a new subscription unit with their hardware toensure it works the way I suspect. I also anticipate someone showing up with a newer unit that is out of subscription, thinking that they don't care about mylaps, only to find out that your unit doesn't send signal.
Who here has one of the newer units? Can you supply any info to the rest of us?
I can also foresee someone hacking the code to activate, or at least start the signal, of a newer unit.
