This is incorrect, (just got of the phone with a Drag Track owner) once you break the 2nd beam the timing starts, its been like this for over 30 years he has been involved in the sport as a racer and owner.
This is why people red light they take off before the tree is finished going throw the lights break the 2nd beam and red cherry is on.
Both tracks in Victoria measure there MPH just after the finish line.
Measuring the speed before the pass is over dont make sense, whats the name of the track and is it ANDRA affiliated?
Now we can get back to listing the times whether it be magazine or track, post which one with your time.
