I think I'm correct in saying that 2 mies in 90sec. = 90mph? but it seems too simple. As the times were in the 88/89secs and the course was a little over 2 miles it was a bloody quick average :D

Of course I could be completely wrong :oops:

Yup, I think your about right Gerry. 3.5km is 2.1875 miles, and say your best time was 88.5 seconds, thats an average speed of 88.98 mph!! Bloody quick.

I registered 130mph on the FC Commander. I want to get a V-box as that was be excellent to compare your runs!

Would love to have a go at sprinting but budget can just about cope with the TA plus our other commitments this year. Was really gutted that we weren't able to attend the BP sprint event :(

I think we first need to sort out our MSA licenses :) Then see what happens.
