Default Australian Formula 1.0 Grand Prix Contest

The trackers are custom built for the contest. They seem to me to be very similar to the cell phone trackers using igc Droid or similar, but they are stand alone devices which read out GPS altitude and groundspeed. We are using the GPS altitude for height control on the start. The scores are calculated as soon as you land using the tracker trace. No uploading. No waiting.
