First off - Wow what a great piece of software, I'm really looking forward to playing with it at the track.
To help me learn all the softwares features, today I set up a test track by driving around the block, then set up a start finish trap etc. I done a further two laps around the same streets to test the lap timing feature but I cant get lap timing to work.
When I go to "travelled route" screen the track looks ok and traps are showing correct. I tried rotating trap by 180° but still no laps. If I export as csv there are no laps or traps in the respective columns.
I have uploaded to rapidshare some screen shots and the session and track .bin files if someone I could take a look. (only a small 75Kb file)

Maybe my track isn't big enough? I'm using WM6.1 by the way.
Any help appreciated.

I've analized your data and it seems that you have the same problem like I had with my internal GPS. You can read my thread some lines below in the forum.
I guess your GPS messures with a rate of 0.3 Herz.
Example:
messure point 37: 8:05:59:0; 38 kph
messure point 38: 8:06:03:0; 33 kph
difference: 4 secs = 0.25 Hz
For the program it is too slow. I bought a Bluetooth GPS with 5Hz and my problems went away.
Thanks for your help - I agree after reading your post that my symtoms sound very similar. I was under the impression that my PDA's built SiRF Star III chipset was meant to be 1hz, but now looking around on the net it seems that the SiRF Star III only has a maximum update of 1hz so I guess I've lucked out. I was planning on getting a Qstarz anyway so I will now keep my fingers crossed that this is my issue.
Thanks.
Hard&soft:
Asus A696 (integrated 1 Hz SiRF Star III chipset)
WM 6.1 OS.
How fix this problem?
If any materials from my GPS-device will help in this matter, I am ready to give their
