With today's technology they should be able to sense the microsecond the car starts rolling and begin timing and distance measurement from that point on and measure the exact time and instant the car reaches 1/4 mile down to the a hundredth of an inch or so. We could get rid of all these trees and reaction times and finally be able to compare cars without the driver skill in jumping the light ruining the comparison.

If you noticed they used the SCT meaning a quick upload of the stock tune would be easy. Next......

I suppose you would wait until you saw green. If you did that in a competition on that style of tree (sportsman) you would be out first round.

You got that right!

GM already issued notices they are on the look out for broken cars with tunes. :(

Tune = Bah Bye Warranty

I looked inside of it after the run. I was at the track that night.

For example my last time at the track I ran against a supercharged Mach 1. I ran a 12.43 @110 and he ran a 12.3x but I still won because I beat him off the tree. He wasnt too happy either.

So to answer your question, yes the clock starts when you move, not when the light turns green. Its not dynolicious.

Correct.
Just to add, this is what makes it a sport. You want to take the human-factor out you can always step your butt out of the seat also. Back in the day you actually even had to SHIFT these cars also, and great drivers could be the difference.
