Default Weather Station Recommendations?

Looking to buy a handheld weather station with ET prediction software before next racing season. Any suggestions or experiences to share? Thanks.

I've been using a Computech handheld for years. Found it to be user friendly and quite accurate.

Thumbs up Re: Weather Station Recommendations?

The Kestrel is hard to beat and the price is right. Fletcher and the Biondos put me onto it when we raced Jr,s. Got mine from Biondos as it is nice to support our own.

Curtis, I never found a hand held that predicted my car nearly as well as Crew Chief Pro software in my laptop. Type in data from my weather station into Crew Chief Pro, and use it’s prediction. Make Edwards put me into Crew Chief Pro a long time ago. He used it to know what to expect from his Pro Stock car. As always, Mike was correct.

Crew Chief Pro is the best I've ever used.

No sir. I thought I said “software in my laptop”. Type weather data from your weather station & run data from your time sips into Crew Chief Pro software in your laptop. Sorry it I was not clear. I’m old.
