Timing gear, the standard equipment used at most clubs is the AMB system, just make sure you are sitting down before clicking the link http://www.bbksoftware.com/pricelists/amb-bbk-sales.htm At Stockport we developed our own system because of the cost. A cheaper alternative is the iLap system http://www.rclapcounter.com/page1/page1.html
To get you started really all you need is any old computer, a copy of the free lap counting software from RCTiming http://www.rctiming.com/index.shtml and someone to press the number keys on the keyboard. Some people will moan about manual lap counting, but anyone decent can manually count laps almost as accurately as an automatic system and should be perfectly acceptable for club meetings. |
