I admittedly suck at math. Tom Kristensen just dropped a 01:46.914 at sebring. The course is 3.70.

What was his speed?


I am trying to compare to the 2004 JJ Lehto with a speed of: 122.528

I got this from Shakedown067. this hurt my brain



You must covert the 1:49 into hours, 1.78. Then take 1.78/60 = .0296hrs
3.7 miles / .0296hrs = 125 mph

Looks to me like Audi flipped the script on Peugeot.

Right around the area where "Animal City" used to be  (along the fence leading out of the hairpin) is now "Computer Nerd-ville) we don't know how this happened..but anyway, they might have the formula for configuring. All I know is if you have too much fun on race day, just pick up the Tampa Tribune Highlands County Edition on your way out of the track on Sunday and that will give you ALL the info. DONE.

Tracks, cars, and weather play so much into ALL of it that it's hardly fair to compair outside of the same race anyway.   idiot2

No, I attribute my loss of using higher math brain functions to Tequila. I used to be able to do all sorts of math in my head, then I found Tequila and it was all gone.
