All excessive speed that's left means spilled time... When you plan to
finish at 500' it's faster to leave early and make a (McReady) slow
glide to the finish line than to make a fast and low dash, which only
causes excessive drag. Of course it's very boring to ease back at 500'
instead of screaming alone with the crops hitting you're fuselage..


Traveling the final mile by trailer is pretty slow too. If you have ever
come up a little short on final glide due to increased sink, you might
change your mind.
