We include a time for the first 64ft off the line as a time of 2 secs to the 64 feet mark equates to an acceleration of 1G.

What was the thinking behind the split at the 320 foot mark at Aintree on Saturday?
Just curious.

Our timekeeper says:
As a distance it has no significance at all. It came about because there has been some discussion, mainly among the BSC runners, that the 64ft time is irrelevant
for sprints and a longer distance would be more useful. As it was a dry day and I had spare beams and cable I thought I would try it and see what happens. Its something that can only really happen at Aintree because of the length of the start straight.
