13 minutes 30 seconds in 11.8 miles comes to 52.4 mph average speed.
Depending on your driving style and personality you can interpret this as any of the following:
A conservative estimate
Right on target
A worthy goal
A bit of an exaggeration
Absolute BS

and the last to leave the gravel parking lot on the way back
(to make sure everybody gets back without a problem)
see the 1st page of "Midnight On The Dragon" link: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...3&page=1&pp=25
btw: i think 9 minutes is the record from the overlook to the gas station (cross roads of time)

By the way, I like the T-Shirts for this year. I ordered one while I was registering for everything.

You probably just need to watch the video in super slow motion in order to see the 2 or 3 frames of video in which a blur of grey and green fly past the screen like a UFO sighting
