WARNING: it will not be possible to start in front of the mats. Those who do not have the detection devices on the starting mats and on the route will be excluded from the rankings.
TIMING
It is now possible to take part in Italian events timed by MySDAM, Krono Service, TDS and Winning Time timers with a single chip!
So it will no longer be a problem to choose which type of chip to bring with you, but with just one you can compete throughout the season.
For Krono Service (red chip) and Winning Time (yellow chip and Nove Colli edition) chip holders, just choose one, enable it, and use it at will on the races in Italy timed by the aforementioned timers.
The activation and purchase of the chips online must be carried out only and exclusively on ENDU, while during the races it will be possible to do so at the “Punto Chip” located near the race secretariats.
All owners of the MySDAM chip and who do not have a chip among those listed above can replace their old chip with the OneChip by taking it to the Punto Chip and paying only for the activation.
