Electronic Timing Providers

Hi all
I'm putting on a circuit race and I'd like to use electronic timing to avoid the usual arguments about finishing positions. It's a short circuit so I'm expecting a lot of riders to get lapped, some of them getting lapped twice.
Does anybody have any experience of a good quality, reasonably priced UK provider. I've tried contacting several but either get no response or an answerphone. Also, if you have used this type of system, are there any disadvantages I need to know about?
Cheers

I did a race at MK Bowl last year where we were given a barcode like sticker to put on our helmets. They then had a load of sensors on the finish line. Seemed to work quite well. I think they were just trialling the system though as it's not been used at any other races I've done there and the company is local to MK.

I've done loads where you get the usual velcro tag to strap round your ankle too.0 -
I've just dropped them a line, thanks.0
