We provide end-to-end race timing services to organisers, helping them increase participation while reducing the administrative burden of event management.
We aim to ensure every participant finds your event a successful and fulfilling experience
As one of the UK’s leading chip timing companies, RTS offers a comprehensive range of event services designed to help clients across the country deliver professional, seamless, and premium events.
Best suited to events without mass finishes and up to 250 participants
This is our lowest service option, and this is reflected in the unbeatable prices. This does not require any equipment to be set up and is managed via our event app, which we offer full training and support to ensure a smooth operation.
Limited to one timing location and a maximum of 500 participants
This level of service is the most cost-effective way to provide a professional chip timing experience. The only trade-off is that one of our trained professionals won’t be on site; however, you will receive full remote support to ensure your event runs smoothly.
We can tailor our solutions to suit any event
Our team of highly trained chip timing professionals provide a premium-level service, offering expert guidance and support to ensure your event runs smoothly and your participants have a great experience.
We can send an automated results message to all your participants with their finish times.
This level of service adds to the professional presentation of your event and enhances the participant experience, ensuring everyone receives their results quickly and conveniently.
