This is a (not-so-quick) video discussing some of the theoretical limitations of Dragster. The main point of this is to help understanding of the possibilities and encourage further discussion.

I'm sorry if it's boring :(

CORRECTION: In the video I quote the speed ceiling for Gear 3 as 130. It is in fact 126. Either way, this error was in favor of a faster time, so it doesn't do anything to change the results.

CORRECTION 2: The distance addition actually occurs before the speed increment, so the correct formula would be prior speed + prior distance, not current speed. Just means that any of the frame numbers I discuss are in fact one frame slower, ie 5.51 to a 5.54.
