thanks guys so much! was never expecting so many replies; 10 in the first 15 mins!
this is research for a dt gcse project in which I am making a single car lap timer, counter, average lap time ever, best and worst ever lap time, sessions best and any other good suggestions I get in Q5.

I am targeting practice sessions rather than races because it is only a GCSE project and my budget (out of pocket) is limited.

Having looked at the transponder systems before creating this survey they are far beyond my reach technically as well as costly!

The name start gate is the one used by the exam board and doesn't really fit the idea very well, there is no restriction of when the car passes through it.
