TRUstart tried at LVMS

[Bob Don]

It puts everyone on a level playing field. Besides the slow vs fast argument, I would think the TRUstart would be a boon to any racer where the dial is within a tenth or so of their competitor. With both cars trying hit their light, the least offending red light would prevail - which would only be right...

The dial ins do not matter. A tenth or five seconds, it is now a fair game.

[Larry Hill]

Of all the rounds run how many times was the outcome changed from the current way? How many places to the right of the decimal point does it read when both go -.001 red?

[Ed Wright]

If they both go .001 red, the first red would lose. Right?

I believe that's what we have at present.........?

Too simple that way, it would need to be carried out a little more.....

I believe the timing systems can discriminate several more decimal point
well past what is printed on the slips.

I have been in a Dead Heat at a National Race before on the slip and the
system still picks a winner.

I don't know how true it is but I have heard more than once,that if timing system comes down to true dead heat that left lane will get it????

The Compulink Timing System is accurate to 10 decimal places.

At 125 MPH (183.3 ft/sec) it can determine a winner within 0.000002197 inches.

In the case of a "tie", which according to Compulink has only happened 3 times in 30 years, both cars advance to the next round.
