Extension cords? Finish line truss? Pyrotechnics?

For RaceReady's live timing and scoring to work at an event, the promoter needs some basic equipment:

1. Reliable internet. Most RaceReady systems come with a mobile router, and you just need to supply an LTE  SIM card with an active data plan. This only works, however, if your facilities have cell reception. If not, you'll need to get more creative, like satellite or wired internet.   

2. Steady, non-fluctuating 110ac power which is available at your finish line. If that means you need extension cords or power strips, that's your call.

3. An overhead truss at the finish line (to attach RaceReady antenna above). Height of the antenna should be between 10' and 16' overhead. Has to be made of a material that will not move or wave in extreme weather conditions. RaceReady can supply you with the necessary trussing for an additional fee.

4. A computer or tablet connected to the internet, with a modern web browser. Supplying power to ensure continued connectivity is a good idea.

5. Basic tools for setup (e.g. hammer, pliers, socket set, screwdrivers)
   

6. Printer
   

7. Tape, zip ties, or other fasteners to safely set up cords, etc.

And, of course, you'll need someone to operate the software on the computer / tablet throughout the race. This means someone who can start and stop timing for each moto or race as they begin and end. This person will also need to edit results on occasion.
