This year will mark my fourth and last PWD for my Pack (Pk 461-Cleve, Oh)and I'd like to leave them with a better setup than I inherited. I have searched a bit and would like recommendations on the following: 1. Piantedosi 4-6 Lane Track 2. Micro Wizard GP3 - P3LCD Timer, Laser Gate, PS pc serial interface 3. DerbyMaster Software 4. Anything else??? I know this is an expensive setup and I don't know if we can cough up the money for it, but isn't it better to do it once and do it right? I picked Piantedosi because it seems to be a very high quality product. Beta

PWD Tracks: Aluminum,Wood, or Plastic? Let's put top-of-the-line Piantedosi tracks up against any of the Aluminum or Plastic Track manufacturer's. Who Wins?

Thank you all! - And keep the comments comming. It's a great education for me and it helps with the purchasing decision - too bad you can't just goup to the store, look at all the models and try them out.
