Message: [QUOTE="ImperialOrange, post: 1449624, member: 362"] There is a point where you hit maximum velocity and your body simply cannot go any faster. I'm more interested in amount of time to cover ground covered in a regular play, or 2nd and 3rd gear if we were talking cars. 40 times are like 0-60 times in cars, they're great to look at but how often are you flooring it from a stop light to 60? That's about how often a football player runs 40 yards in a straight line. I'm all about acceleration which is why I want 10 and 20 yard splits. Austin's 4.34 combine is fast but his 1.5 10 yard and 2.49 20 yard splits are what made his speed elite. If a guy hits 20 yards and in 2.5 seconds it doesn't particularly matter what they cover the next 20 yards in. [/QUOTE]
