Revolution3 HIM Sandusky Ohio (Page 5)

Just wanted to give an update on the Trakkers units.   Please, please keep in mind that this is a new technology / new device and it is just as important (alright, much, much more important!) to Trakkers (the company) that they get their devices manufactured and out there on athletes as it is for the athletes that want to have the technology while racing.

When we began sign up (months ago) we had been promised a number of units from the manufacturer.   (Trakkers makes the technology but as with most devices the actual manufacturing is outsourced.)   The manufacturer did not come through with anywhere near the number of devices that were originally anticipated.  So, here's how the devices are handed out - Trakkers team members are given devices as it is part of their contract.  After that devices are handed out the the first ones to sign up for them.  They are free at the REV3 races and as soon as Trakkers has a full fleet of devices they will be available for rent for other races.

These are purely for an added bonus - they are not your timing for the race.  I will be one of the ones timing the race at Cedar Point and we will be working to have as many check points as possible out there.  I have raced and spectated iron distances races (and half iron!)  and I know how hard it is to watch / wait on someone out on the course.  

I hope that helps, like I said as soon as the devices are in Trakkers hands they will get them in your hands at the races! Until then trust that REV3 has awesome timers : ) that will be taking care of you on race day.
