Thanks John. It's too bad the freeze frame is a foot past the finish line ... but we get the point, it was all but a tie!
 
the problem with cars going 200+ mph and video is that with a 30-frames per second rate, you don't get every inch of the cars movement in a frame. that was the best freeze frame i could do, considering the technology.

the only way to get a 100 percent perfect finish line video is to place one of those ultra-mo cameras pointing across the finish line.
 
Can you just imagine the "discussion" that would have ensued in pre-Chrondek days???

Calling all historians!
maybe someone here is in the know on this history subject....I understood the finish of a drag race to be determined by a timing light from literally the beginning....the flag start was the starting system that was replaced by the xmas tree in '63 ? I say timing lights, but perhaps they were pneumatic hoses like the gas stations used to use to alert the owners someone had pulled in....

Mind you, I am sure the systems were a bit cruder, and perhaps didn't record to the 1/10,000th place, but they were there....is that correct? Or is that wrong?
