That is the mph at the 1000' marker.

So at the 1000' mark he was going 70.61mph.

Damn I thought the Scion tC was faster than that. That's weak. racer12306 ran a 16.11 in a Neon that's essentially stock (5-speed). And he's a big dude like me, so def no help in the scrawny driver weight redux category.
