Think those 40' are going to make much difference in the speed you reach at the end of the track? Not really, just a slight difference. But, it will take you significantly longer to go the full 1320 feet with the worse launch (mostly because it took you longer to get through the first 60').
Ahhh, of course - and I have a degree in mech e :rolleyes:
