If it also helps, if you are calling into doubt the time travelled over the timing loop, you are also calling into doubt if Scott got all those pole positions legitimately, and especially the accuracy of those 1000th of a second they use to separate the cars

I'm not sure what your first point is.... but pretty easy to explain that the magic number is 0.45s and Scott travelled the distance in X. Given how much V8SC have to lose (which is somewhat highlighted in your second point) it's interesting that all they've presented in public is hyperbole..... perhaps presenting the data raises that's less about the infalable technology and more about the human adjudication of a 'tolerance'.... especially given that apparent lack of need for it.
