Sports timing via your smartphone

About

RaceGorilla started from the passion for sports and performance. As athletes and race organizers ourselves, we recognized the need for an easy and affordable timing solution. We started RaceGorilla as we saw that many race organizations are pushed back by the restrictions in budget and (technical) manpower when choosing their timing solution. On top of that, we saw a huge potential to increase the exposure by building an online platform. Read more about RaceGorilla and which problems it solves when organizing a race.
