WheelTime “Lynx” at World Masters Games

The T-7 WheelTime system was selected as the official cycle timing system for the recent World Masters Games in Sydney, Australia, and stood up to the significant test of 15 hour days for six days on the trot. 1,300 cyclists competed in the 75 events including time trials, criteriums and road races. Cycling NSW were the hosts for the events and were supported by Times-7 Sport's Product Manager Gavin Chaplow.

In addition to placing and results being collected by T-7 WheelTime and collated for reporting in T-7 Sportscore, a FinishLynx camera was also used and fully integrated with WheelTime.

Cycling NSW CEO Kevin Young said "the WheelTime system performed exceptionally well under some testing conditions and linking the results with the FinishLynx camera provided the commissaries with photo evidence confirming the accuracy of the WheelTime results."

Gavin Chaplow added "the FinishLynx camera is certainly a great addition to event timing and the system integration worked impeccably even in the rain. The results from our Sportscore software were available immediately after the race."

Times-7 Sport is elated to be working with our customers to assist in event timing at international events such as the World Masters Games. The event is yet another milestone in an already impressive legacy.
