Track hand timing 101:

If the timing system is manual (like HP's button system), all times must be rounded to the slower tenth and only recorded in tenths. FAT (fully automatic timing) is recorded to the hundredths. Standard conversion from hand time to FAT is to add .24. As an example, a hand time of 28.01 is rounded and recorded as 28.1. Converting to FAT makes it 28.34 (quite a bit different than 28.01). Something to keep in mind for PR's, qualifying times and what you might be shown at the finish line with a stopwatch.
