TimingAppLive

This webinar, organised by Motorsport UK, will include a demonstration and training session for Sapphire solutions’ TimingAppLive. The App is a great way to time Autotest and Autosolos and produces instant results, removing the need for paper and pen, and making it COVID-19 safe. If you download the app beforehand, you will have the chance to try it out by timing a car on a video to see how it all works for yourself.
