Competitors Timers
One of our timers didn't meet your needs? Take a look at what other vendors have to offer.
Features to look for in a timer:
Results displayed at the finish line, so spectators can
see the results. Nothing touches the car at the finish line. A timer is only
as precise as it's sensor. For more information read,
The Micro Wizard on Accuracy The timer should
have a clean professional appearance, and should not block the finish
line.
Should be able to function without a computer, yet should be capable of sending
it's data to a computer. Your timer should be easy to install and remove from
your track for easy storage. Should give you a good value. The most expensive timer
doesn't always give the best results. Available Tech Support should a problem
arise.
Safe low-voltage operation. That can be run by battery or power
adapters.
A variety of timers and options to fit your needs. One timer doesn't fit
everyone.
