I have used TrakMate for my lap counter since I returned to the hobby and started to look for a nice lap counter system on the Internet. TrakMate is able to be used with infra-red light sensors, dead strip, and magnetic reed switches. It works great. I’ve used it on my 1/24 slot car tracks and currently use it on my 1/32 road course and HO layout. View their web site for more information. They also have drag racing programs available for your track. They do require a PC but you can find a cheap 286 to use it on…does not need Windows or a 500mhz Pentium machine!
