the mini-z tags have not hit stores here domestically as i'm sure your aware you get items sometimes a month or more before kyosho usa. jpn already has the mini-z racer and f1 tags listed but you won't find a nibble even here.
what may be old news over seas is often new news here in the u.s. due to the severe lag in information distribution.
for clubs, sprint mode is almost pointless as you should be able to configure by time or laps or both. our club has run sprint races maybe 10 times in 6 years. i'm sure it has practical use in stores but for clubs, it's more than likely used frequently or not at all.
rather than wasting time with the kyosho software i'm waiting for flipside to get thier software ported to the unit. at lease until kyosho can step up thier game with something that offers tools users really need. more than likely by then, flipside will have thier race management upgrade completed.
what is so surprising is that they got the hardware/software stuff from core analog and thier software, while flawed atleast offers what home users need such as race management, etc. core never seemed to have the same limitation re: simultaneous lap counts. i've had car parked over the loop an never had others not count as far as i can recall.
us the new system as finiky with usb ports as core analog is? it's hit or miss with core and usb ports. some work and some just won't.
