HKS Drift Chamber Tracking Idea
 Start time of the drift time can not involve momentum
information- Do Timing Counter Pre tracking, project
the time to HDC1&2 by geometry.
 The most possible hit selection is necessary for the
case that there are several hits on the same layer of
HDC1&2 for one space point.
 Both Start time and Stop time should be decided
individually for every single track compare to do
average.
