MYLAPS TR2 Transponder (Direct Power)

The hard-wired MYLAPS timing transponder for cars, powered from your 12 V system so it's always on and never needs charging. Accepted across club, endurance, and pro series that time with MYLAPS.

Overview

What Is It

MYLAPS' current-generation car transponder, replacing the X2 Direct Power transponder.

Every time your car crosses a timing loop, the TR2 sends its unique 8-digit ID to the MYLAPS timing system, and that's how your laps, positions, and results get recorded. If the transponder isn't working, your laps don't count, so most series put the responsibility for a reliable transponder squarely on the team. The direct power TR2 takes the battery out of the equation. It wires to the car's 12 V system, so there's nothing to charge between sessions and nothing to forget in the trailer.

The TR2 is managed over Bluetooth through the free MYLAPS Speedhive app, where you activate and renew your subscription and see live timing and results. It also accepts a driver ID input, which matters for endurance racing: series such as the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie require a transponder that identifies every driver in the car.

Speedhive Live Timing

Live name, position, total time, best lap, and flag status in the app, with results and lap analysis after the event.

Adding Driver ID

The TR2 reads driver ID as an analog input. That input can come from a helmet plug, a rotary switch, or the MYLAPS X2 Driver ID module, which connects through its Analog/TR2 port. The transponder's LED blinks the active driver number, so you can confirm the setting in the pit lane.

For a simple push-button setup with an LED driver display, pair the TR2 with the X2 Club Driver ID Kit.

Mounting Notes

Your series rules come first. These are the common requirements.

  • Mount no higher than 2 ft (60 cm) above the ground, the MYLAPS maximum for cars. Some series set lower limits.
  • Mount as vertically as possible, with a clear view of the track surface below. Carbon fiber or metal between the transponder and the ground blocks the signal.
  • Keep it away from heat sources such as the exhaust and turbo.
  • Fix it solidly to the chassis using the TR2 holder. Many series do not allow zip-tied or taped transponders.
  • Register your transponder number with your series before the event so your laps are credited.

FAQ

Common Questions

Which series accept the TR2?

Most series that time with MYLAPS. ChampCar, Lucky Dog, and Britcar name the TR2 in their rules, NASA TREC and WRL require a MYLAPS transponder, and the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie permits the TR2 Direct Power with driver ID. Always check your series' current rules.

Direct power or rechargeable?

Direct power wires to the car's 12 V system, so it's always on and never needs charging. It's the better choice for a dedicated race car. The Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie, for example, only permits direct power transponders with driver ID.

What happens when my subscription ends?

You renew it through the MYLAPS Speedhive app over Bluetooth. The GO option is a lifetime subscription, so there's nothing to renew.

Can the TR2 show which driver is in the car?

Yes. It accepts an analog driver ID input from a helmet plug, a rotary switch, or the X2 Driver ID module, and its LED blinks the active driver number. The X2 Club Driver ID Kit is the simplest way to add it.

How high can I mount it?

MYLAPS sets a 2 ft (60 cm) maximum height for cars. Some series set lower limits, so check your rules.
