Yes but the gantry signifies the finish line.
thats good then

you think "i've finished" 8 to 10 feet after you actually did.


if it was the other way there'd be people lifting off the gas before the timing beam.

only a problem if you are timing yourself i guess..... and that that speed you shouldn't be dicking about with ya watch :)

No if the finish line is closer to the start line, it wont take as long to go past the finish line so their times will be half a second quicker.

Went to the pod last weekend with the Doomsday Impala team.New gantry looked great.We had a walk to the end of the return road and the old gantry is laid down by the side of it.It looked rough.

If it takes you half a second to travel 8 feet at top speed you are not going to win many races ;) ;) ;) ;)
