    Could this be used / adapted as a rally stage timer or is that your next evolution project so it would be possible to have a overall and sector /stage times for up to 6 sectors per stage

    I have built this exactly to the instructions but the laps count up when the leds are lighting the ldrs and only stop counting up when the light is removed. It seems like its working the opposite way.
    can you please help as I’m pulling my hair out trying to figure out what’s wrong
