lap timing

[szymonsta]

does anyone here have proper lap timing equipment (as opposed to a mate with a stopwatch)?
a few friends and i have been looking into getting one of these:
an AIM Sport infra red laptimer - MyChron Lite TG

linky:
http://www.aimsportsystems.com.au/car.htm

price is $449, and it offers an InfraRed lap receiver and transmitter, display with current lap time and best lap time, 128kb memory, 2000lap storage capability, and internal (battery) power.

looks tempting..

symonz check out this site, http://www.laptimerholders.com/ ive been wanting to get the XT Ultra lap timer, which u can also buy another reveiver and get split times recorded. This site is cheaper than what most places can do in oz. Ava geese u geesa.

any one have any info on the full datalog units and prices?? the ones that show lap times, corner g's/speeds ect.?

[fueltank]

maybe clubITR should buy one and rent it out to their members

[supernatural]

maybe we should have a group buy...

has anyone used a combination palm PDA + GPS receiver + software like this:

to get lap times and general data logging?
i am considering it as an alternative to what szy has mentioned in his first post.

I'd like to know how well the setup works with a 1Hz GPS receiver... or whether higher rates are needed for good results etc etc?

it would also work quite well as a sat nav too..
