Re: Lap times?
So where would I find most of the 10 secs difference?
later braking? I guess? |

Re: Lap times?
What do you guys time your laps with?
I used a duct-taped on cheapo stopwatch at the 'Ring for bridge to gantry timing, but at least there you had a chance to reset between laps. Sounds like fun and gives you more of an idea if what feels like a fast lap is a fast lap. |

Re: Lap times?
You can get proper lap timers, which I will get at some point they lock onto the beacon on the track to make sure they accurate, otherwise attach a beacon to your car/van if you want one best plave place would be motofourm.

Re: Lap times?
Oh yea, my best Bridge to Gantry time at the Nurburgring so far is 9:48 including slowing for waved yellows. Aiming for sub 9:45 next time.

Re: Lap times?
Most track days don't activate the beacons as they think it encourages racing.
Track Days are "practice days" and are generaly not timed. |

Re: Lap times?
I'm just going by the bike in front of me that I kept up with. He had a proper system, but just manual (push a button, not a transponder) just had a look on ebay & they're generally quite expensive. Plus I'm sure a trackday organiser wouldn't be happy to find you with a transponder - so high chance of losing it?
Is video a good method (obviously you only find out after) Also what should your focus be? passing other bikes or lap times? |

But I'm not bothered about a timer at moment, I have other things to think about. |
