Flash Results Texas is a Houston, Texas based sports timing and data service, primarily for track and field, cross country and road racing events.  Started in 2002, we have handled national and collegiate championships, along with in-season college and high school meets. 

 

Our goal is to provide results quickly and accurately for the meets we work, as well as assist in making the presentation of the meet as smooth and professional as possible.  We use FinishLynx fully-automatic timing equipment and Hy-Tek meet management software.
