LapMonitor Lap Timer
#31
I’m hoping so. I’ve been using the Zeppin lap timer for few years. Works great, but it’s single car only. I’ve also been using LapTracker app on my phone for small scale, and for quick testing with 1/10.
I’m starting with 4 transponders. We’ve had a “for fun” 1/18 scale racing at local HobbyTown for years. Last year a few times they ran Euro Truck. And they work well on the small, tight 1/18 layout. Having a timing system might get few more interested.
See how it goes in few weeks.

First test with the lap monitor. Works fine. No problem with transponder under body being blocked. I’ve had this with the Zeppin system. Did have to be sure transponder was facing toward the timer as it passed. Same as the Zeppin. I’ll try to get a basic video up soon. Need my small camera

Less than 3 feet is an unexpected very small range. Was the transponder facing a painted body area ?
To get good range the transponder must be in front of a clear body area like the window or a hole
Could you post a picture of your transponder install ?
Thanks,
