Together with timing systems, velocity and acceleration data can be developed from the position measurements.
In 1990 the first automatic timing systems for professional car and bike racing were being implemented by the company.
Instead they appear to be on some kind of sequential timing system.
Also new is a timing system that will be less rigid than in previous debates.
Since 1999 the laps have been counted by an electronic timing system.
This is more accurate than the timing system used by the master/secondary stations.
The race also pays $25,000 for its timing system and $100,000 for contract labor.
There are also similar timing systems that use the simple process of breaking a beam of light.
With the accuracy of the timing systems, ties are rare.
These were largely a reorganization of the old rules book, but also introduced a new timing system.
