how do they pull that off, first to 1000' goes over the finish line first or they go and tell nhra we adopted the FC & TF finish line for our race??

Well I've never been in this position as I'm usually way behind another class car at the 1000' mark! lol A lot of the guys running for class agree to do this to protect their precious AHFS numbers. Whether they shut off, hit the brakes, whatever, I'm not sure.
