Default RE: mph question?

You could measure the amount of time the vehicle takes to cover a certain distance at full throttle. With a running start (i.e. max speed throughout) you should be able to roughly calculate your speed - although judging when the car is passing a certain point at some distance away can be difficult, making the results inaccurate.
