17 seconds for Sam R, that's about the fastest real time there. 42 mph. Teammate is listed at 45 mph, which I think is totally realistic for a top sustained speed but not an average speed from the corner.

I do it in 19 seconds, 38 mph avg, means I was going faster in the sprint. Hm. Screwy. Top speed 37, avg speed 38? Doesn't make sense.

Anyway from the corner is long but possible. From just before the corner I've seen done but I think that's a freak of nature thing.
