Stop watches are great but not as accurate as a an on car timing device.

I run and AMB transponder on my car. When I'm serious about tuning for faster lap times I run with NASA or NCRC. Point being NorCal Shelby events should not be used to try and kill your last best lap time.
We have full data logging in our cars as well as transponders, there is no better tool for driver development than data logging as you can see your lines, corner speeds, shift points, etc. Then get a better driver to drive your car and see where you are losing time. The systems are relatively cheap now too, at least compared to what they used to cost.
