I use the Racer and do find stuff , last good coin I found using the Racer was a 1787 Conn. Copper. Using 3 tones , sens. @ 80 , 6" deep with the 11" coil. Jumping between 86 and 88. My second one found. However I can't seem to post pics , so I don't post anything. If I did with out a pic. , people want to see pics. So for me I will just keep on finding good stuff with out posting. GS
Relic season is upon us. Green up over this way shuts things down along with the heat and ground that's as hard as concrete during the summer months. Give it some time and activity will rise again. Over the years of watching and reading the forums I have found that it does seem to have a rise and fall in activity based on the time of year and weather.
Relic season is what a lot of us have been waiting for to get out and find more with the Racer...better weather, less ticks and chigger and for me NO rattlers
Give it time and you'll see more in the next few months. HH

Yeah I noticed that also but we all love to read about new stuff and so the racer is getting older now there is a new gold machine coming out but I'll stick with my racer
We get into the start of Fall and into Winter and some areas, such as in the SE USA, are now a little more huntable with fewer bugs and less hot and humid weather. At the same time, many people in the NE and N. Central states are often dealing with, or preparing for, wetter and colder weather that's on the way. The W. Coast is often due for ample wet weather starting soon, especially in Oregon and Washington, while more inland area, such as where I live in Oregon, and down trough the rest of the high desert/great basin area and into the lower W. coast and SW regions, will more often than not have more or less pleasant weather, not as well, but areas will start getting colder soon.
Some folks mainly get out detecting in the summer months. Some people might get interested in rumors or reports of new and creative detectors on the horizon and might flock to those Forums and leave reliable Forums, such as this, a little quiet ... at least for a while. Then, too, we can't ignore the fact that many of us who enjoy outdoor recreation like metal detecting, also enjoy hunting season and that time of the year has been upon us for a month-and-a-half now. I am spending time this morning getting the detecting gear, rifles, shotgun, handguns, cooking gear and other camping and hunting needs loaded in my hunting rig. I'll be headed off for perhaps a week-or-two for deer hunting, bird hunting, trying to thing the coyote herds, and also keeping a watch for some sites to fit in a little detecting.
This is a very cyclic hobby, just like hunting or fishing, skiing, boating, etc., in that we tend to have 'seasons' which can vary by time of the year or location. I am sure we are going to see more Forum activity on this and other popular brand forums in the near future. I might even start to shop for a good but handy camera so I can get photos of finds and sites to add to posts. I know many only read the forums, and some often won't post unless they have a photo or two to flavor their story.

Been too hot here to do much detecting. Just got home from a camping trip up to the lake where I at least can get in the water to cool off and do some water hunting. Only two crappy pieces of jewelry and 42 coins but I was using the Tiger Shark. Racer season is coming for me, about another two to three weeks away.

I wouldn't worry too much about little activity on the forum. I'm perfectly content picking up what other detectors have missed. If lots of other people had Racers, there'd be less for us to find!
