All these features are contained in this easy to use product.

Our Race Timer, Start / Finish Line and Speedometer is designed for 1:64 scale model cars, e.g. Hot Wheels. It will start a race, measure the time and speed of each car and reveal the winner of a 2-lane race, or continuously measure the speed of every car on up to 2 tracks.

The first production version of our Race Timer and Speedometer was released In June 2021. Demand outstripped the initial stock and we produced more units with additional production runs. A new version 1.2 was released in Nov 2021 improving timer resolution by internally measuring events in millionths of a second and adding an error checking feature. The new design, Version 2.0 released in March 2022, now adds a pause feature and improves accuracy further. The Standard version is a 2x improvement on measurements on V1.2 whilst the new Advanced model improves this another 7x! (14x overall improvement) Speeds are now more precise and determined within 1% of real speeds up to 88Km/h!! With Version 2.1, specific models can display speeds on the LCD in mph or Km/h.
