Velocity = Distance/Time

or

Time = Distance/Velocity

As your velocity approaches infinity, your time goes to zero.

To me it's not velocity, it's acceleration. Even if I don't break the speed limit, I have fun getting there.

Acceleration = distance/time/time

It really just boils down to the BOV sound. I dont care if I am fast or not....eventually I just want to hear the spool and then the BOV.

The point is to go faster than the other guy. . . especially if you're on the 405. . . at rush hour. . .
