Okay who took the stripe and by how much?

car 1 dial 6.18 et 6.17701 rt .05181

car 2 dial 5.71 et 5.74988 rt .00924

Car 1 is representing a .04882 package.
Car 2 is representing a .04912 package.

Car 1 took the stripe by .0003.

Thanks Tony. Sometimes if I look at something long enough I can make it much harder than it needs to be. LOL

Next time either take a little or give a lot. This position does you no good!

how many feet is that .0003

Assuming 105mph at the stripe;
1) 105mph x 5280 = 554,400 feet per hour
2) 554,400/60 = 9,240 feet per minute
3) 9,240/60 = 154 feet per second
4) 154 x .0003 = 0.0462 feet margin at stripe
5) 0.0462 x 12 inches = .5544 inches margin at stripe (slightly over a half-inch)

I was trying to take a little and got carried away and gave a little. LOL Luckily he broke out. Why I always think I need to take .005 when .015 will do I have no idea.



Jerry, in this case it was 0.5822256" he was 110.27

I have an excel file I made to figure that.
