For those of you that are math inclined.
Speed of light = 186,000 miles per second
186,000 miles per second = 982,080,000 feet per second
982,080,000 = 11,784,960,000 inches per second.  That is eleven billion,
seven hundred eighty four million, nine hundred sixty thousand inches in one
second.

*0.000000000085 seconds.*
*Holy shit, that is going to throw your timing on that cylinder all to hell.
