It doesn't matter how many are on course, it matters how often you can start the
next car. 20-25 seconds is the optimum window. Remember you have to lay things
out so cars running 20-25 seconds apart aren't ever headed towards each other.

Great! My car redlines at 73mph in second...

75 sec * 40mph avg. = .85 miles...

"offset" is the common term.
