Beer bet.
Does anyone have a link to the FINA rule that explains how automated equipment is used to judge relay take offs?
The FINA rules I've been able to find on-line first point you to section SW 13.1, which then points you to FR 4. But FR 4 doesn't address it.
I need the link to the explict FINA paragraph to win my beer.
I already have the undocumented statement from the Washington Post April 1, 2007.
"Officials ruled Crocker left 0.01 of a second earlier than the allowable start time. Crocker got off the blocks with a reaction time of -0.04 of a second. The most allowed is -0.03."

Thanks for the replies and the time and research that went into them !
It is frustrating (to me, anyhow) that we can't seem to locate FINA documentation of this procedure. Even if it is vendor specific (i.e. Omega or Daktronics, etc.), I would think FINA would have to publish guidelines.
I may have to thirsty :)
