Check Micro-wizard for sure! By the way Micro -wizard is offering a 10% discount right now for the off season. Not sure how long it's good for but I just got it when I ordered my timer last week!

I would check out Microwizard, I have one and have had no issues. Stuart and the Microwizard staff support their product very well. Along with the 10% off season discount you can also get kits which are really easy to build and can save you some $$$.

I will third the checking out micro-wizard. They are great people and the product they sell are great too. I have owned several of their timers and never had a issue that I did not cause, even when I caused the issue they were right there with support. I have never owned a champ timer, but I am sure it is a great product like their tracks.

I asked about the Micro Wizard and Best track told me whatever I would like would be fine with them. What I'm trying to say here is, they didn't push their product on me. Best track folks are nice to deal with. They told me if I didn't like the timer, no problem send it back for a refund and buy what you want. My Champ timer works fine. No complaints here!

No complaints here!My MicroWizard display is big and bright and I can see it great from the starting gate! How's the Champ's BSB? (The CHAMP is a great timer as well, our Cub Scout Pack has one and we have had no problems... I think both brands are quality timers... I am just playing with BSB here... )

It's true............I had to put a magnifying glass on the front side. The ET numbers are on the small side. The back of the display is BIG...........but that only tells the place of the finish. I think it would have been nice the other way around!!! Oh well, as long as it gets the job done!!!!! My MicroWizard display is big and bright and I can see it great from the starting gate!

The display must get smaller the faster your cars go.... BSB will probably need a 4X magnifying glass soon.
