| Our IRt/c's were displayed in action at The Raceorama Show in Springfield, MA on March 2 - 4th. Thanks to Ola Nordell of Dittman & Greer, Inc., an Exergen distributor located in Middletown, CT (860-347-4655), who uses the IRt/c.01 to measure torque converter, tire and track temperature. You can visit Ola's Motor Sports website at www.olanordellmotorsports.com. |

| Tire temperature is of critical concern in automotive racing for two reasons: |
 |
The tire temperature directly affects its adhesion and its wear characteristics |
 |
Tire temperature patterns provide valuable information on the set-up and performance of the suspension. |

IRt/c's and D Series scanners are used for many applications in the Automotive Industry. For pictures of the IRt/c-equipped racing car that was displayed at the Raceorama, see below. |
