Has anybody had any experience with these lap timers

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BIKETEK-LIGHT ... 5d36b56a2e

they look pretty basic but as long as they work it'd be a better option than a very dis-interested 'long haired general' standing trackside with a stop watch in hand!

BikeTek Laptimer with wireless I.R. transmitter
A simple and reliable lap-timing unit for all race and practice purposes
Compact and lightweight design, the LCD-display receiver is easily mounted to road and off-road motorcycles, karts, cars and cycles
Pitwall transmitter unit, powered by two AA batteries (not included)
15 metre range (transmitterreceiver)
Memory capacity of 64 laps / 99 minutes
65x40x11mm receiver unit with wired IR-eye
Viewable data; individual lap timings : slowest lap : fastest lap : total time : average lap time
40x20mm LCD display
940nm frequency
The receive should be mounted to the vehicle in an appropriate position which does not interfere with vehicle functioning
(self-adhesive velcro mount included). When the receiver (ftted to the vehicle) passes by the I.R transmitter (left in a suitable location such as pitwall)
the lap number is displayed and time is recorded, building up data of lap splits. If multiple Biketek laptimers are in use in the same session, just one transmitter should be used
(ensure no more than one transmitter is in use). It is the user

No experience with this but what ECU do you use? Does the ECU have the function to record laptimes?

Currently I've still got the ECU that it was imported with (it's been tweeked but pretty sure it's just a stock ECU).
I pulled the AEM EMS back out because it would have meant a whole load of work fitting MAP sensors, UEGO sensors, intake sensors, replacing the intakes....which would ultimately get me thinking that I might as well lob the 740 injectors on....which would lead to me thinking that I might as well stick the forged lump in there with bigger tubs etc etc.........in a nutshell the car would spend another 6 months sat on my drive having not been used due to jobs waiting to be finished.

this way it'll definately get used

I might give this lap timer a go, it's dirt cheap so worth a punt I think
