Fischer, Jim E (Corvallis)
Dave and all,
Winning Time Active (Seattle but based in Italy) has been supplying timing systems for running, tri and cycling events for years. The Utah cycling association has adopted a mandatory chip timing policy using WTActive, and I was curious to see it in action.
The cost is an issue (tags are $45/ea) for riders. The system worked as advertized counting laps, providing lap times, splits to the leaders on each lap, etc.
Official results will be provided by OBRA, but I will have the files available for folks to check out. If you want to see the data, e-mail me directly.
WTActive should be sending me the files today. I will forward them onto OBRA so they can compare to their Finish Lynx line-scan camera.
There are far more bells and whistles to these systems (finish line-triggered e-mails to each racer with results, etc), but for now we just wanted to see the basics.
Thanks to those riders where had to wear the tags. I relayed comments from the women about the tags being loose as I was collecting them.
Regards,
Jim Fischer

Is there any chance that the ankle chip Guinea pigs get to see the data?
I know it's not an OBRA thing. Just curious.
