janderapoopeeza :here we go again,young man hayes WAS electronically times SIEKO the watch/clock co. had electronic timing hooked DIRECTLY to the starters pistol,the millisecond the trigger was pulled the timing started.if you think about it he may have gotten ripped off as the timing started IMMEDIATELY before they could leave the blocks as with it starting when sprinters feet leave the blocks.
bolt,gay etc. should be embarressed that 46 yrs ago in tokyo and on a loose dirt track
(YES DIRT)bob hayes ran 8.5 on his anchor leg of the 4X100 and was in 6th place 3 yrds behind and flew by everybody to win by 3 yrds and again this was on dirt, these guys run on fast modern rubberized surfaces and still haven't hit that time yet
