NASCAR changing systems?

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - NASCAR will likely use an outside vendor for its timing and scoring in 2007.
Swiss watchmaker Tissot entered into a partnership as NASCAR's "official timekeeper" to develop a new timing system that could be implemented in 2007.
"We'll test some of their products," NASCAR vice president of corporate marketing Steve Phelps said. "If that works out well, and we think they can improve the timing of NASCAR, they will be our timing and scoring partner starting in 2007."
Tissot is currently the official timekeeper of the MotoGP World Championship. And Omega, a corporate cousin to Tissot, does timing for the Olympics.
Currently, NASCAR uses software from a Dutch company, AMB i.t., to time qualifying and races.
