Large, 2-Digit Weatherproof, Spectator Car Racing Lap Counter w/ Wireless Remote Controller for Outdoor Sporting Events & Race Tracks

Introducing the DC-302C-W, our latest custom-engineered digital display, built specifically as a two-digit wireless lap counter for car racing applications. This project was commissioned by a customer who previously used our four-digit models but required a more simplified version for tracking laps under 100. The result is a powerful, streamlined, and highly visible lap counter that delivers professional-grade performance with user-friendly controls.
This display is designed to be wireless and remote-controlled, enabling easy use during fast-paced racing events where timing and visibility are crucial. The controller provides simple functionality:
- +1 Button: Increments the count by one with each press
- –1 Button: Decrements the count by one with each press
- Set Button: Starts auto-incrementing. The count begins slowly, then accelerates over time. Pressing the set button again stops the auto-counting.
- Zero Button: Resets the display back to zero
Product Features:
- Digit Size: Two large 30-inch red LED digits ensure clear visibility from a distance, even in bright outdoor conditions.
- Case Construction: Built using a powder-coated aluminum extrusion, offering durability and weather resistance for outdoor racing environments.
The rugged enclosure is not only corrosion-resistant but also engineered to withstand harsh trackside conditions like heat, moisture, and debris. The powder-coated finish adds an extra layer of protection, while the extrusion’s structural rigidity helps maintain integrity during transport or installation. This makes it ideal for long-term outdoor use, temporary setups, or mobile racing operations where reliability is essential. - Mounting: Equipped with dual C-Channel mounting rails on the back for flexible installation.
- Power Requirements: Operates on 120–240V AC at 50/60Hz, drawing up to 5 amps. A junction box located on the lower right side contains clearly labeled pigtail wires:
- Black – Live
- White – Neutral
- Green – Ground
This model comes only with the wireless remote control—no extra accessories are included, keeping it simple and cost-effective.
