Mark is correct about the average ground speed 216.7 MPH, however, that was
NOT Tracy's top speed, that includes the take off roll and climb which of

Not to diminish the results, but I believe the actual lenght of the course is between 80 and 90 miles, not 100 miles, thus compensating for the take off roll and climb. I could be wrong. Anybody know if the average speed is computed from actual length of course or from 100 miles?
