Koch ran vs other cheats, so it was a level playing field.
Yes Flo Jo's WR was windy so make it one of her 10.6's.
flo jo ran 10.56
Wrong!
All-time women's best 100m

2 10.61 +1.2 Florence Griffith-Joyner USA 21.12.59 1 Indianapolis 17.07.1988
3 10.62 +1.0 Florence Griffith-Joyner USA 21.12.59 1q3 Seoul
My bad. It was 10.54 (Olympic final) and it was wind-aided.
Clean Koch is clean.
Does it really matter? When do we just accept the fact track is a dirty sport, a lot of greed and the hell with it?

The truth was that the wind gauge was not working properly (or was faulty) for her 10.49.

I don't know how that 10.49 hasn't been more investigated. It was so windy in that race Flo Jo's hair is blowing about, the commentators even said "a wind aided 10.49" as they just assumed it would be because of the gales blowing.
Ridiculous. The wind was probably +4.
The long jump just before was +4 and +5. The other quarterfinal after Flo Jo's race was +5. Flo Jo's race was filled with PBs and SBs. It's just obvious.
Even if the wind dropped to a legal amount like 1.5 it would be slightly more believable, but 0.0 is just clearly an error.
What about Bolts 9.58 & 19.19? Also, most if not all 100 meter runs under 9.90 should be erased. Most of the dopers that ran under that time have already been busted at least once.
