start-finish line
Circuit's dual threshold
The start-finish line is the marked line on a racetrack where competitions both begin and end, common in oval and circuit racing where vehicles or runners complete laps returning to their starting point.
Crossing it first on the final lap determines the winner: She crossed the start-finish line two seconds ahead of the pack.
