Title: Re: Olympic Track and Field qualifying (SPOILER) Post by: stroh on June 30, 2008, 08:47:22 AM that's gay That is gay. It doesn't count because there was wind? These clowns play golf or kick field goals? HTFU. Title: Re: Olympic Track and Field qualifying (SPOILER) Post by: Clive on June 30, 2008, 10:10:36 AM More like a 3.54, assuming constant velocity.
Title: Re: Olympic Track and Field qualifying (SPOILER) Post by: Aske on June 30, 2008, 10:28:07 AM That's like a 3.87 40. LOL, not that argument again. michael johnson ran the last 100m of his WR 200 in 9.2 (10.12 1st 100, 19.32 total) , interestingly this guy has the next best 200m time since johnson's WR, 19.67 total. seems like johnson is a slow accelerator of the initial gun but hits a maximum peak speed that is much higher than this guy can reach. (not completely scientific or rigorous, but something on the order of 10%), oh, and at that peak speed, johnson would cover 40 yards in about 3.37s. lol.
