    I coach cross country at a small high school/middle school and we don’t have the funds to pay for timing our home meet. We are a new team. I used another teams TimeTech Sprint8 timer to time our home meet the last 2 years and I am looking into buying something inexpensive . Our races have usually less than 75 kids per race. The UltrakL10 looks similar. I tried using the Web Scorer app, it turned into a lot of work after uploading it to my computer. I use the RaceTab software because it’s free. Let me know if you know of any timing systems or apps! Less than $1,000.

    Thank you!
