Was wireless timing in use ? If so how well did it work ? Any details would be interesting .

[Dr Goggles]

It worked well for us!!!

One point was that they weren't generating time slips in the traditional sense, apart from that , from what I know( that's not necessarily a huge amount) it worked just fine....

From what i have heard, we had issues the first day and it was caused by heat , the units apparently are housed in protective enclosures which reduces the effectiveness of there heat sincs , opening up the housing helped , but it was an exceptionally hot day , we had issues with the heat too

main thing was there were were much fewer misses , only one that i know of after an incident stopped racing and probably an unrecognised misalignment
for a first run i think it very successful and the system has a lot of room to expand, transmitting results to a printer in the pits i thought was intended for this meeting, not sure what happened there
particulary looking forward to a live screen  with instant results for spectators
