“At this milestone we want to thank the athletes, events directors and ChronoTrack timers for making the D-tag such a great success,” said Dan Howell, ChronoTrack Systems President. “We relied on a close collaboration with customers to add years of expertise to the equipment design and ensure that all solutions meet the real-world needs of athletes, events and timers. This was truly a group effort.”

Events, timers and athletes alike have been drawn to the D-tag because of its disposability and ease of use. With the ChronoTrack Systems D-tag, the participants simply peel the D-tag off the bib and place it on their shoe to record their time. By creating the D-tag, the need for chips is eliminated thus, eliminating chip assignment, cost of shipping, lost chips, secure zone for chip collection, while also cutting down on the number of staff and volunteers that is take to work these areas.

These great benefits along with many others has made ChronoTrack Systems pioneering technology an easy choice to use at over 600 events in North America alone.
