Drag finish delay?

If I hit the finish line at 14.5 it always takes half a second to register that I finished, giving me a score of 15.0. 
It might be because I'm Australian and I might have a ton of latency to the servers but I don't see why that should impact my drag race times.
Does this happen to everyone or am I genuinely getting scammed by the game here?

Video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvzM1juNfSE
Finished the race around 14.5 and I was given a time of 15.03 
I'm also relatively new to drag racing so if anyone has any tips that'd be awesome.

  • This also happens to me as well, not only in drag but also in other races. But, I havent reported this issue cause, after you race, go back to garage, then go to minimap and then check the events speedwall, you will see that your original time has been uploaded. If going back to garage doesnt work, try restarting the game. I've been on a time trial challenge with a friend, event: least is the most', i finished the time trial at 3:38, but then i quit the game and restarted and saw that the time was 3:37:xxx

  • this post needs more XP and EA should, and i mean REALLY SHOULD read this. i have the same problem too. it still gives me a little added time to the leaderboard which is annoying. you got everything perfect, from the car to the burnout to the shifting, but still it happened. it's a new game mode and i think they need some major works on it.

    On the drag Neck To Neck my best true time is 13.91, which actually gave me a false time of 15.34. I wish I was joking.
    I can't say that my times have updated with reloading/entering my garage and all that, but it's good to see I'm not the only one experiencing this. Hopefully it gets more attention and the devs fix it.
