FastMate Racing RaceSense Tyre Gauge

This RaceSense Tyre Gauge has been designed to save you time in the pits and on the track

Tyre pressures are critical to performance but the majority of gauges can be out by 1 to 2 psi or more. We’ve designed a high-quality rugged gauge that’s as accurate as those used in the highest echelons of motorsport. As well as precision measurement it has some unique functions and does a lot more than any other product.

Racesense makes pressure recording easy and accurate

RaceSense has been designed to survive the rigours of track life. We’ve been busy testing it with drivers, technicians and motorsports teams to create the ultimate tyre pressure gauge.

Accuracy better than +/-0.1 psi*

Rugged metal case and water resistant

Normal Gauge & fast Multi-Tyre modes

Sync to iPhone, Android or computer

Optional fast response thermocouple for temperature sensing

Designed and assembled in the UK

Accuracy:

RaceSense is designed to be very precise. Measurements are typically accurate to less than 0.1 psi and the gauge is sensitive to pressure variations down to 0.01 psi.

• Accurate to 0.1 psi*
• Range 4 to 100 psi
• Switch between psi, bar, kPa or kg/cm2
• Automatic tyre mode records initial pressures (max) and adjusted pressures
• Ambient temperature and barometric pressure
• Plug in our fast response type K thermocouple tyre probe for temp readings too**

Multi-tyre mode:

RaceSense has a multi-tyre mode which is a real game changer for quick pit stops. There is no need to remember or write down pressures.

• Record pressures on all tyres without pressing any buttons
• Starting tyre and direction can be preset (anticlockwise/clockwise)
• 2 or 4 tyre mode
• Record tyre temperatures (inner, middle, outer per tyre) and track temperature with thermocouple probe
• Set vehicle number, tyre set number
• Label as Hot/Cold, Session name and more
• 7 Presets available for easy change between vehicles

TO USE: Just fit the chuck on first tyre valve, adjust pressure until correct, move onto next tyre, adjust pressure etc, etc.
After all tyres have been measured the data will be saved automatically with time and date and ambient temperature and can then be exported. Initial and adjusted pressures are all recorded. If a thermocouple is used then tyre temperatures are also saved. Our iOS and Android smartphone apps will add location, weather and wind conditions.

Temperature:

Not all probes are equal. We have developed a fast response, adjustable accurate temperature probe (pyrometer) to go with RaceSense.

The probe is low thermal mass which won’t act as a heat sink to skew your readings (unlike metal bodied probes).

• Quick response: After insertion it typically takes 2 seconds for the probe to reach 90% of the final temperature, 3 seconds for 95% and 4 seconds + for the temperature response to level out.
  The gauge even shows Up or Down arrows if the temperature is changing. These will disappear when stable.
• Adjustable depth: There is a screw adjuster and locking nut so that the tyre can be probed at a consistent depth. A depth of between 3 and 5mm is recommended. The probe can be adjusted up to 15mm which will puncture most tyres. To avoid punctures the needle should obviously not be inserted too deep and the probe should be inserted into the tyre blocks only and not the grooves/voids or sides. Take care with very worn tyres.
• Avoid heat sources: Temperature accuracy will be affected if e.g. the gauge or probe are heated (or cooled). So, do not leave the gauge and probe near sources of heat or where large thermal gradients may be expected e.g. in direct sunlight, on top of engine, near heaters or fans etc.
• Car setup, tyre pressures, track conditions and driving style will all affect the bulk tyre temperatures.
  It does not make sense to compare readings from different car or tyre types or different probe depths.

Sync to your phone:

Racesense Tyre Gauge has a built in phone link, tap to your phone and view the data in the app. No pairing is needed and the upload takes less than a second.

• Shows maximum and adjusted pressures for each tyre
• Temperatures from inner, middle and outer of each tyre, track and ambient temperature**
• Auto-senses GPS location when downloading
• Auto-senses weather conditions, atmospheric pressure, wind speed and wind direction
• Add notes, edit
• Export individual records and all data

NFC enabled phone required: Phone 7 and above, Android 5.5+ with NFC. Apps downloadable from the App store and Google Play.

No phone available? No worries, RaceSense plugs into a computer too so you can download a CSV file of your data. No hardware drivers are needed for this so no installation is required beforehand.

Want to keep your pressures secret?

Use OFFSET MODE to input your desired pressures beforehand. RaceSense will show the offset from these values rather than actual pressures on the screen.

Just adjust until you reach zero and no one will know what pressures you are running!

Why RaceSense?

We couldn’t find a pressure gauge that was accurate and had all the features we were after. As well as precision we knew that many drivers and mechanics were jotting down tyre pressures on bits of paper or inputting into separate spreadsheets. What a pain.
