Mineralized dirt and saltwater test with the Makro racer

Here is another nice test with the Makro racer:

and I have done several comparison tests as I worked with these detectors. As I often state, "There is no such thing as a perfect metal detector." While true, we do have some on the market [size=small](or about to be)[/size] that are exceptional in their performance capability. I'm now looking at moving one of my detecting jaunts up to two weeks away where I will enjoy using these two detectors at a couple of sites I worked with the T2's I had before. I had both salty, mineralized ground to deal with and one place with EMI challenges that both cause total annoyance with the T2's and several other detectors. From the field time I have put in so far, I doubt I'll have any troubles with these.

And if you're considering a T2, look at the cost of a new one and what you get and compare it with a FORS CoRe or Racer Pro Package. I believe in 'simple' and 'functional' and 'performance,' and I also believe in 'value.'

Nothing new on the horizon implied, just several people I know and personal hunting buddies who are eagerly awaiting their pre-ordered Racers with the Pro Packs to get out into circulation. Some of us are getting ready for a multi-site Ghost Town outing in 2½ months and they want them soon to get some 'learnin' time' in as they are not used to a 2-Tone or 3-Tone audio in iron trash, or using a VCO audio in the Discriminate mode w/2-Tone, either.

It is going to be an Informal/Casual Outing for anyone who would like to have an adventure for a weekend and a few days after. For many it will be an opportunity to possibly find the oldest dated US coin they have made yet, so those planning on the "about to be" release to dealers are excited.

I'd like to see them. This is the year I finally get my own detector.

As my latest video may upset bunch of people, you have to find it yourself.:punch:

I have hunted that red dirt that Carter used in the video for many years. That was very impressive to say the least.
 
Wow, it's holding up to a detector that's about twice the price, at least, speed wise.

Well the test may not be the fairest test for the Deus, as the Makro racer have that thigh 11x7" coil design, but whatever.:twodetecting:
 
I would say the test was very fair, T2 was silent Racer cut thru it in disc like it was in all metal . I have tried a lot of detectors that poop out in mineralized ground when using disc and to see that Impresses me would like to see the racers depth in all metal as well
 
hi guys ..ive been reading the forum for years and always found it very educational ...finally thought its time to join ... is the makro racer good for nugget hunting and also just wondering when the racer gold is coming out or is it already out ...cheers
 
Keith Southern on here is on YouTube as Relics 1864. He did a small nugget test on the racer.

The gold hasn't come out yet, to my knowledge. I don't even think they've released any information yet besides the coming soon.
