to help you gauge the speeds you will need:
Bronze Break Out is 2:30, 10 laps so you want to run around 15 second laps

Silver Break Out is 2:00, 10 laps so you want to run around 12 second laps

Gold Beak out is 1:30, 10 laps so you want to run around 9 second laps

Remember the course is 700'
pilots stand closer to pylon#1 than they do #2
Actual distance will be around 200' to #1 and 500' down to #2
