BibTag going Boxing-class

We hear what you think: Why would MYLAPS technology  be used to time an event without fastest times or winners? Ok, we've got you a little there. In June, our BibTag system was succesfully used for the Guinness World Record for the largest boxing class in the world, in Mexico City. The organizers could easily count the number of attendees with the BibTag system, and there were a lot of them!

YOUR RACE UNDER CONTROL 

MYLAPS X2 Race Control

Motorsport is super exciting: pushing the limits of vehicles, drivers, and racing officials. We all know this is not without risk. That’s why we have developed X2 Race Control, a fully integrated solution to control all the action happening on the track, using real-time data (GPS location, vehicle data) to help you enhance your race control duties. We are proud that many circuits around the world are adopting our system by executing installments of one or more pillars. This year, the X2 Race Control LED Panels have been homologated by the FIA/FIM, making the system even more accessible for racing series. We are excited for for more installments in 2023!
