Use a miniature version of what they use in horse races. You might bump
the
gate, but, you physically can't start until your gate opens. That might
prevent a lot of "false start cheating" claims. That could look really
cool. A loud bell and the gates fly open.
What do you other guys think?

Drop the whole, stupid sport from the program.
