F563 · 10-23-2013, 05:57 PM

Was wondering who is using the iFamily Software weather station and racelog? Also been looking at altalab and crew chief pro sat in on webinar for crew chief pro and seemed complicated? Also they sell a video to train you to use it why would you need to buy that should come with it.... So let hear what you have to say????

I have been using the crew chief pro software for 3 years now. It is not that complicated. It's a selling tool for the video. Don will modify your software to taylor it to you. For example, I have a stick shift car. Don added places for me to enter base and counterweight. My weather station is linked to crew chief, so after a pass enter the time and the weather readings for that snapshot will automatically be entered. Enter the time slip info and any notes and you are done. The other thing you can do if you have a data acquisition system is tie the data file for each run to the same run in crew chief.

I have both Crew Chief and Family. Family Software is easier to use than Crew Chief plus you don’t have to pay an annual fee to stay current like you have to with Crew Chief. Crew Chief has some more options, but with a weather station Family has everything you need and is very accurate right out of the box. I highly recommend Family Software.

I have been using Family Software for quite a few years. I have won many races and three IHRA Hot Rod Division titles with it. Highly recommend it. Also, they are always available for support, even if you are at the track. Great folks

I have been using family software for over 18 years and have done well. Easy to use and the tech support is great.

Family software all the way. I just bought my set up this past March from Bob Kodadek. This was my 1st yr .90 racing and found my way into my 1st final after only 6 races in s/g using his stuff.His software is very easy to use. I have 2 cars, a s/c dragster and a s/g Camaro and both worked very well this yr. Customer service is 2nd to none as well, highly recommend!
