Default transponder placement?

Where is the best place to put my transponder for PCA club racing? Best way to attach? The car is a 1997 993 TT.

Thanks

I attached mine to the inside of the wheel well. Metal screws into the chassis.

Hey Tim,

Congrats on taking the leap. We were paddocked next to each other at Gingerman this summer. I borrowed your jack to tweak my sway bars.
Good luck on the racing!

Maybe sunroof is pinned in closed position - required in certain club rules - I believe SCCA is one of them.
