Let's see if my dumb brain did this correctly. 100mph = 146.67 feet per second. So if two cars are traveling at 100 MPH and are 1 second apart, thats 146.67 feet between them. Cut in half that's 73.335 feet. The average car length is 13.5 feet long. so that's 5.4 car lengths behind if the 2nd car finished 1/2 second behind the leader when both are traveling 100mph. I do that right?

Sounds good to me, all though if you were to go to the moon on a shuttle, you would not want me to figure out the parameters to get you there. Thanks

Just letting you know, don't worry about shifting at all. Just mash the gas and the car will shift for you automatically just before redline. Yes, even in "M" and using paddle shifters. The car will not hit rev limiter, I've tried this multiple times. Should help you with up shifting too early.

OK so I went to Cayua today during their test & tune session. The car is a '14 IS350 F-sport AWD mostly stock.
This was the best run I had @14.047 sec,
Also, I was able to outrun some pretty quick cars too. #2927 was mine.
