What you posted looked to me to be for your ET only to the 2nd digit and not down to the 3rd digit.
Without the reaction time included in it how would you ever decide who won?
When I started racing in the 60's the tech person at the finish line picked the winner and hand wrote the ET cards declaring the winner and pulled the ET and MPH from a readout to put on the card. I believe the system used then was called a Crondex or something like that. I remember it doing a lot of clicking when I was near it.
I still have the winning cards for all my class win trophy's long before they were Wally's.
I really am getting old.

Your correct. I looked at my dragy log and only 2 digits to the right of decimal. I guess the point i was making is the future is around the corner for no time slip booth. Or clocks needed. Never needed to know reaction time to determine winner. Who crosses first and dont break out or least amount to break out of the 2 would decide
