Apologies, you are almost correct on those. I fed the numbers into something
which calculates speeds based on the seconds only - assuming that all lap
times are 1 minute plus the seconds. IOW it always adds 60s to the seconds
before doing the calculation. The lap length is 4.655 km, so the correct
average speeds are slightly higher than those you posted.

I'm signing off from this thread now, I have to take my wife to hospital
this afternoon (outpatients only).

Thanks. It went quite well - for a change. After about 3 years they seem to
have decided the problem is something they originally dismissed as not
possible.

Hmm, sounds like my experience. Still, finally getting a good diagnosis is a
good thing. It makes a great difference when you are able to actually get on
with some sort of treatment, therapy or what ever applies.

Stokes drag applies to very small particles moving through viscous fluid at
low Reynold's numbers. It isn't even vaguely appropriate for cars. If you
want try and baffle people with terms you've heard once and misunderstood at
least try and use applicable ones for the argument in question.

I deducted 2 laps for fuel saved not 3 if you'd bother to actually read
posts properly.

Stoke's drag is used in the derivation of the formula for drag at high
velocity, but it's rusty for me so I really don't want to try to get
into it.

> It isn't even vaguely appropriate for cars.

You're having a laugh. Actually no, I think I read another one of your
posts where you mentioned something equally dim-witted about drag or
speed ......

Why doesn't that surprise me? One of my areas of expertise is fluid
mechanics and flow bench testing so by all means get into it if you want to
actually try and support any of the gobbledygook you post.

You can learn something about how power, drag, rolling resistance and speed
are related from the technical articles on my website if you want.

* w w w .pumaracing.co.uk/TOPSPEED.htm

* w w w .pumaracing.co.uk/trans.htm

* w w w .pumaracing.co.uk/simulate.htm

Try not to get a headache. I'm sure it'll be a struggle understanding it
all.

Is "fluid mechanics and flow bench testing" the fancy name for a three
day course on how to use a flow bench? I would accept fluid mechanics
as being an area in which someone could have expertise but the chances
that you've never studied that are almost nil.

How's the view from up there? Up on your high horse looking down onll
a the little people. Look at me! I have a website!

You're pathetic.

That doesn't work any more since the Max saga, it just starts off a
round of double-entendre gags until one party submits.

I thought Max was the one submitting for most of the video ;-)

Been peeking on facebook? Most people think I'm cute.

They gave your mother a bone and a pat on the head ;)
