John,
At most of the Virginia Motorsports Park events an end speed of 50 mph
would be high!, especially yesterday's course. What I try to do is use the
recording tach, etc to pick a reasonable end speed just after the timing
line and then trim the run at the top of the last accel peak. Since I have
a recording tach, I'll also check any places where I hit the rev limiter
and figure the mph from that and see how they correlate.
