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.

I've had good luck with my Kestrel.

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.

Re: Weather Station Recommendations?
I have an Altronics PerformAire weather station. It has ET prediction, but I don't use it much.
I get my weather data online here https://airdensityonline.com/tracks/ It closely matches data from the Altronics. I then use ET Predictor Pro 9 software on my laptop to predict my ET. http://www.ifamilysoftware.com/Software.html This is somewhat less costly than Crew Chief Pro. I went this route originally when index racing in NSS. The software gives HP corrected weight which is more useful for index racing.
