Motorsport timing innovations
Furby spearheaded the transition from manual stopwatch-based lap timing to an advanced RFID system
In 1994, Furby spearheaded the transition from manual stopwatch-based lap timing to an advanced RFID system in Motorsport South Africa, revolutionising race operations nationwide. He later managed national motorsport results systems into the early 2000s and served as a race director for several national series events.
Patrick shared his excitement about the industry, stating, “It was great fun – I even had the opportunity to race a few events myself.” He continued contributing to the motorsport industry by aiding in the development of Zimbabwe's motorsport control until 2019.
